Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and yeast.
Add honey to warm water, stirring until dissolved.
Pour the honey-water mixture and olive oil into the flour mixture.
Stir until a dough begins to form, then knead on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a lightly floured surface to your preferred thickness.
Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spread low-sodium tomato sauce evenly over the dough.
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Arrange anchovy fillets, red onion slices, and cherry tomato halves over the cheese.
Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes, black pepper, and garlic powder for seasoning.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Slice and serve hot, enjoying your low sodium classic anchovy pizza.
