Simple and quick cannellini bean gnocchi with only two ingredients, blend everything and cook them, they are ready in a jiffy and are great to enjoy even cold and are very popular with kids just like chickpea nuggets
It’s a very simple and quick dough made only with cannellini beans and flour that you can also flavor with spices just like the chickpea gnocchi this time, I seasoned them with fresh tomatoes, garlic, and parsley or you can season them like I did with the zucchini gnocchi.
To make the bean gnocchi, you can use canned beans or jarred ones or dried ones, but you need to soak them the night before and then boil them. I recommend you buy a good jar of beans and prepare this delight, and I’m sure the whole family will love them.

Steps
HOW TO MAKE BEAN GNOCCHI IN JUST A FEW MINUTES
PREPARE THE DOUGH: Blend the beans with an immersion blender, season with salt, and add a drizzle of oil. Add enough flour to form a soft and workable dough.
PREPARE THE SAUCE: Sauté the garlic clove with some oil, and if you like, add some chili pepper. Add the washed and chopped tomatoes, season with salt and flavor with parsley, cook for about 15 minutes.
COOKING: Meanwhile, boil some water, make rolls with the dough, and then cut the gnocchi into the size you prefer, drop the gnocchi into the water a little at a time and when they start to float, scoop them out and add them directly to the pan with the sauce, mix everything well, add some fresh parsley and enjoy these delights.
