Description
This roasted garlic hummus is creamy, healthy, and super easy to make! Use it as a dip for pita bread, crackers, and veggies, or spread on your favorite sandwich.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 head garlic, roasted
- 2 tbsp tahini
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2–4 tbsp water
- Optional garnish: fresh parsley, garbanzo beans, olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Remove outer skin layer of the garlic head, leaving the skin of each individual bulb still intact. Cut off the top of the garlic head so all bulbs are partially exposed. Drizzle olive oil over each exposed bulb and rub into the bulbs. Cover the garlic head in aluminum foil. Roast, cut side facing up, for 35 minutes. After, remove from oven and allow garlic to cool completely.
- Combine garbanzo beans, olive oil, roasted garlic (skin removed), tahini, lemon juice, and salt to a food processor. Process ingredients until nearly smooth, adding water as needed. Add more or less water depending on your desired consistency. Alternatively, add additional olive oil in place of water.
- Transfer hummus to a bowl. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, garbanzo beans, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Notes
- Serve hummus with warm pita bread, crackers, or vegetables. Additionally, spread hummus on sandwiches, pasta, salads, buddha bowls, or toast.
