METHOD
For the hummus:
In a food processor, combine beans, oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper and process until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then transfer to a bowl. Drizzle with oil and vinegar and top with chopped tomato and basil. Serve with warm pizza crust, seasoned with salt and pepper.
For the pizza crust: Preheat the oven to broil.
Divide the dough into four equal parts. Roll each piece into a ball and roll out until about 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface. Brush both sides with oil and season with salt before placing on a baking sheet. Broil for 2–5 minutes, or until lightly browned, then flip with tongs and broil for 1–2 minutes more, or until puffed and lightly browned in spots. Serve warm with hummus and cut into triangles.
