Homemade garlic hummus

  • Yield: 2 cups of hummus 1x
  • Diet: Low Fat

Description

A delicious garlicky hummus. 


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 can of chickpeas (15 oz or 425g) (drained & washed)
  • 1/2 cup of lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoon tahini
  • 6 cloves of garlic (smashed and peeled)
  • 1 tsp of salt
  • Olive oil and paprika to finish


Instructions

  • In a food processor add lemon juice, garlic, tahini, chickpeas and salt
  • Pulse until mixture breaks down, and then run the food processor for 5 minutes for the hummus to come together. 
  • Once it’s done mixing. Plate the mixture and drizzle oilive oil in the grooves and sprinkle paprika over the top. Enjoy with some pita, or veggies. It’s great on broccoli

Notes

  • Although peeling the chickpeas (which takes forever) results in a smoother hummus, the texture of unpeeled chickpeas is actually really nice, and brings some life to the spread. 
  • You can do this same recipe with freshly cooked chickpeas, but the work is already done for you when they’re canned. 
  • You can also sprinkle finishing salt over the top for an extra saltiness.
