Caramelized Onion and White Bean Flatbread is a perfect recipe for a quick and easy dinner or lunch. The dough is made with whole wheat flour, which makes it healthier than traditional pizza dough.

The sweet caramelized onions, the savory mushrooms, and the creamy white bean spread work together to create a dish that is packed with flavor and nutrition.

Instructions

1.Preheat oven to 400°F.
2.In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add onions, mushrooms, and salt and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are soft, dark golden brown, and caramelized.
3.In a medium bowl, mash the beans with a fork or a potato masher until creamy. Stir in oregano, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, water, vinegar and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to make a spreadable mixture.
4.On a lightly floured board, roll the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the circle to a large baking sheet or pizza pan coated with nonstick spray.
5.Spread the bean mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Spread the onion mixture over the bean mixture. Arrange the tomato slices over the onion mixture, sprinkle with cheese, and top with a few twists of black pepper.
6.Bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes.
7.Cut into 8-10 slices and serve the flatbread hot, garnished with pumpkin seeds or pine nuts.
