Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups chickpeas (canned or cooked)
- 0.25 cups tahini
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 whole garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons water
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons paprika (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoons olive oil (for garnish)
Instructions
Begin by draining and rinsing your chickpeas if using canned. If using cooked chickpeas, measure them out and set aside.
Place the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic cloves, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, water, ground cumin, and salt into a food processor or blender.
Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and creamy. If the hummus is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lemon juice, salt, or olive oil for flavor if desired.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl. Use the back of a spoon to create a swirl on the surface of the hummus.
Drizzle the top with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle lightly with paprika for garnish.
Serve immediately with pita bread, fresh vegetables, or use as a spread in wraps and sandwiches. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
