Total time: 5 mins
Serves: 2 cups
Ingredients
- 1 tbs. sesame seeds
- 2 tbs. olive oil
- 1¾ cups chickpeas
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 tbs. Coombs Family Farms Grade A Dark Color, Robust Taste Maple Syrup
- ½ tsp. cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp. nutmeg
- ⅛ tsp. cumin
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 tbs. water, if needed
Instructions
In a high-powered blender or food processor, blend the sesame seeds, olive oil, and chickpeas. (Note: Grind the seeds first in a spice grinder or coffee grinder for smoothest results.) Add the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, cumin, and salt. Blend until smooth. Add the water if you want it a little thinner. Taste the hummus and adjust the seasonings. This isn’t an exact science, so you’ll want to play with the proportions to get a flavor you love. Transfer the mixture to a serving dish and serve with crackers, tortilla chips, or vegetable strips. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
