Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread the cauliflower florets evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, until tender and lightly golden.
In a food processor, combine the roasted cauliflower, roasted red peppers, tahini, remaining olive oil, lemon juice, garlic cloves, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Blend the ingredients on high speed until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a tablespoon of water or more lemon juice to adjust the texture.
Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning if necessary. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice depending on your preference.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and a sprinkle of paprika for garnish, if desired.
Serve chilled or at room temperature with low-carb vegetables or keto-friendly crackers.
