Ingredients
warm water
1 cup (Should be between 100°F and 110°F.)
honey
1 teaspoon (Measure out honey.)
active dry yeast
2 1/4 teaspoons (Use fresh yeast.)
all-purpose flour
3 cups (Sifted for lightness.)
salt
1 teaspoon (Measure out salt.)
olive oil
1 tablespoon + more for brushing (Use for dough and grilling.)
creamy peanut butter
1 cup (Use smooth peanut butter.)
chocolate chips

miniature marshmallows
2 cups (Use regular size or halved if preferred.)

Instructions
1
In a small bowl, mix the warm water, honey, and active dry yeast. Allow the mixture to rest for about 10 minutes until it becomes frothy, indicating that the yeast is activated.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour with salt and olive oil. Pour in the yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until it begins to form a cohesive dough.
3
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it by hand for 5 to 8 minutes until you achieve a soft, smooth texture. Shape the kneaded dough into a ball and place it in a large bowl that has been greased with olive oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and a damp kitchen towel, allowing the dough to rise in a warm area for approximately 2 hours or until it has doubled in size.
4
Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release the air. Divide the dough into three equal portions and shape each into a ball. Keep the balls covered with a kitchen towel to prevent them from drying out.
5
Take one dough ball at a time and roll it out into either a rectangle or circle shape. Brush the top and bottom of the rolled dough generously with olive oil.
6
Preheat a large grill pan over medium heat or prepare an outdoor grill. Once hot, carefully place the oiled pizza dough onto the grill and cook for about 5 to 8 minutes or until the underside is golden and has distinct grill marks. Flip the dough using tongs and grill the opposite side for an additional 3 to 5 minutes until it is cooked through.
7
Remove the grilled pizza dough from the grill and place it on a baking sheet. Repeat the grilling process with the remaining dough pieces.
8
Spread a thick layer of creamy peanut butter on top of each grilled pizza. Scatter chocolate chips and miniature marshmallows evenly over the surface.
9
Return the topped pizza to the grill, reduce the heat to low, and cover with the grill lid. Cook until the chocolate chips have slightly melted and the marshmallows are toasted and golden, keeping a close eye to avoid burning. Alternatively, place it in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes.
10
Remove the pizza from the grill, sprinkle with crumbled graham crackers, slice generously, and serve warm for a delightful dessert experience that is sure to impress!
