Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Black beans (cooked, drained, and rinsed)
• 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Water (as needed)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a food processor, combine the black beans, olive oil, and 2 tablespoons of water. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.

Step 4

Add the black bean mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir well until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time until it reaches a pliable consistency.

Step 5

Lightly dust a clean surface with gluten-free flour. Transfer the dough to the surface and knead it gently for 1-2 minutes to ensure it's evenly mixed.

Step 6

Roll the dough out into a circle or rectangle, depending on your preferred pizza shape, about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 7

Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough onto the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone.

Step 8

Bake the dough for 7-8 minutes to firm it up slightly before adding your desired toppings.

Step 9

Remove the dough from the oven, add your choice of pizza toppings, and return the pizza to the oven.

Step 10

Bake for an additional 7-10 minutes, or until the edges are crisp and the toppings are cooked to your liking.

Step 11

Allow the pizza to cool for a minute or two before slicing and serving. Enjoy your homemade black bean pizza!
