Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 15 oz (1 can) Cannellini beans (or Great Northern beans), drained and rinsed
- 0.5 cup Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- as desired Pita chips, vegetables, or bread (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a food processor, combine the drained and rinsed cannellini beans, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Transfer the blended bean mixture into an oven-safe baking dish.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and 3/4 cup of the shredded mozzarella, reserving the remaining 1/4 cup of mozzarella for the top.
Spread the mixture evenly in the baking dish, then sprinkle the reserved mozzarella cheese on top.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
If desired, switch the oven to broil for the last 1-2 minutes to achieve a golden-brown top, but keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the dip from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with chopped parsley, if using.
Serve warm with pita chips, fresh vegetables, or slices of crusty bread.
