Savory Pumpkin Hummus

I tinkered a bit with what I found in other recipes and this is the result. I think I like my results.

I stirred in a small handful of tamari-flavored pumpkin seeds just before serving (couldn’t find plain ones) and sprinkled a bit of paprika on top to make it look nice.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans, drained
  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ¼ cup toasted pumpkin seed kernels, or more to taste
  • 1 pinch paprika

 

Directions

  1. Pulse lemon juice, tahini, garlic, and salt together in a food processor or blender until smooth. Add garbanzo beans and olive oil and pulse until smooth. Add pumpkin, cumin, and cayenne pepper; process until well blended. Transfer hummus to a container with a lid and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

  2. Fold pumpkin seeds into hummus; garnish with paprika.
