Instructions

Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C).
Divide pizza dough into two equal portions. Roll each into an 8-inch circle on parchment paper.
Drizzle each crust with olive oil and spread to coat, including edges. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt.
Slide dough onto a pizza stone using the parchment and bake for 1 minute. Remove using the same method.
Spread chopped chipotles evenly over each par-baked crust.
Top each pizza with 1½ cups mozzarella, black beans, and crumbled goat cheese.
Bake 8–10 minutes, or until crust is golden and cheese is melted and bubbly. Whole-wheat crust may need slightly longer.
Top with chopped avocado and serve immediately with salsa and sour cream.

Notes

Mix olive oil into chipotles for a milder flavor.

Add corn or sliced red onion for extra texture.

Swap goat cheese for feta or queso fresco.

Use whole-wheat dough for a heartier base.

Add cilantro or lime juice for brightness.
