Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Kosher salt
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
1 15-ounce can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
2/3 cup drained giardiniera (Italian pickled vegetables), chopped, plus 2 tablespoons brine
1/2 cup fresh basil, torn, plus small leaves for topping
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Freshly ground pepper
3 medium heirloom tomatoes (about 1 1/4 pounds)
1 small clove garlic, grated
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced

  • Place a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Mix the flour, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
