I'd be inclined to suggest splitting it in half and doing half with and half plain (or two batches) just so you've minimized the number of variables. It sucks to get an awful result from what you think is "just one thing" you changed, but finding out after too much time that it's something else entirely.

I was thinking of a little sharp cheddar with fresh peppers mixed into the dough. Then a little sprinkle of both on top before final baking.
