Preparation
- Begin by draining and rinsing one can of white beans. Mash them until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine mashed beans, all-purpose flour, egg, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until a cohesive dough forms, about 5 minutes.
- Lightly flour your work surface and roll a portion of dough into a log about 1-inch thick. Cut into 1-inch pieces; optionally, roll on the tines of a fork for texture.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the gnocchi in batches; once they rise to the surface, let them cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Drain them.
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet and sauté the gnocchi until golden and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Plate the crispy gnocchi, drizzle with your choice of sauce, and sprinkle with fresh herbs.

Notes
Storing uncooked gnocchi in an airtight container for up to 2 hours before cooking maintains freshness. Cooked gnocchi can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days.
