Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, add 1 teaspoon of yeast to 3/4 cup warm water. Stir until the yeast has dissolved into the water. Add 2 cups flour and 1 teaspoon salt. Combine as much as you can with a spoon.
- Dump flour mixture onto a work surface and knead with your hands until a cohesive ball is formed. If the dough is sticking to your fingers add a bit more flour. Cover with the mixing bowl and let rise for as long as you can wait.
- To make the garlic-oil sauce, finely mince 2 garlic cloves and add to 2 Tablespoons olive oil along with a pinch of salt. Smoosh the garlic into the oil using the back of a spoon and set aside.
- For the black bean puree, roughly chop 1/2 an onion and peel 2 garlic cloves. Saute the onion and garlic in a dollop of oil over medium heat for 5-7 minutes.
- Drain and rinse one can of black beans. Add the black beans to the onion mixture along with 2 chipotles in adobo, 1 Tablespoon adobo sauce, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, freshly ground pepper, and 1/2 cup water (or stock). Simmer for a few minutes until heated through.
- Combine the bean mixture in a blender or food processor. Salt to taste (I added another pinch to this batch).
- Tear the dough ball in half, and then tear one of the halves in half. This will be enough dough for a super thin 10" crust.
- Give it a quick roll out with a rolling pin and then let it sit for couple minutes, this will reduce the elasticity. Continue rolling out to your desired thinness. Rolling the dough on parchment paper can be easier as it won't stick as much. You can also bake the pizza directly on the parchment paper.
- Once rolled out, bake the dough by itself for 1-2 minutes in a 400F oven. (I used a standard baking sheet). Then add a thin layer of the garlic-oil sauce, followed by the black bean puree, tomatoes, scallions, and cheese.
- Bake at 400F for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges start to brown. Cut into quarters and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Combine and knead all ingredients (I used my bread machine).
- Let rise 50-60 minutes.
- Roll dough on a cornmeal-covered counter.
- Place dough in pizza pan.
- For a thin, crispy crust, place toppings on dough and bake immediately.
- For a thicker, chewier crust, allow dough to rise 15-30 minutes before adding toppings.
- Place pizza on the bottom rack of oven (Preheated to 500°F) 5-10 minutes.
- We filled our pizzas with pizza sauce, rest of the black beans, tomatoes, zucchini, onions.
Tips:
- Use canned or cooked black beans. Dried black beans need to be soaked and cooked before using them in the dough, which can take several hours. Canned or cooked black beans are a quick and easy alternative.
- Be careful not to overcook the black beans. Overcooked beans will make the dough too soft and difficult to work with.
- Add more flour if the dough is too sticky. The amount of flour needed will vary depending on the moisture content of the black beans.
- Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before using it. This will allow the gluten to develop and make the dough easier to work with.
- Use a pizza stone or baking sheet to bake the pizza. A pizza stone will give the pizza a crispy crust, while a baking sheet will make a softer crust.
- Top the pizza with your favorite toppings. Black bean pizza dough is a versatile option that can be topped with a variety of ingredients.
Conclusion:
Black bean pizza dough is a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional pizza dough. It is made with simple ingredients and can be easily customized to your liking. With its high fiber and protein content, black bean pizza dough is a great option for those looking for a healthier pizza option. So next time you're in the mood for pizza, give black bean pizza dough a try!
