5-Minute Hot Honey Recipe (So Easy!)

Add 1 cup of honey to a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat.

Bring the honey to a boil.

Once boiling, remove the pot from the heat.

Mix in 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of red pepper flakes, depending on desired spiciness.

Add 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder (optional).

Add a pinch of salt and whisk until combined.

Let the pepper flakes marinate in the honey for at least 5 minutes or up to 10 minutes.

Strain the honey using a fine mesh strainer over a glass jar to remove the pepper flakes.

Serve immediately or store in a glass jar at room temperature for up to 6 to 8 months.
