Description

This Peanut Butter Hummus is creamy, flavorful and great for adding to wraps, sandwiches, salads and more!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cans chickpeas
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter, sugar free is best
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1 spoonful chili paste, or desired amount
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons tamari
  • Juice of 2 limes, or lemons
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
  • Ice water
  • For garnish: toasted sesame oil, roasted peanuts, cilantro

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chickpeas, this step is optional, but I like to boil my chickpeas before adding to the hummus.  This makes them soft and warm, which helps create a super creamy hummus.  I like to boil them with a small amount of baking soda because the baking soda helps break down the chickpea skins.  I then drain and rinse the chickpeas and pick out any visible skins that have come off the chickpeas.
  2. Next, add the peanut butter, garlic, ginger, chili paste, lime juice, tamari, olive oil, cumin and salt to a food processor and bend until mixture is smooth and the garlic and ginger have all been blended up.
  3. Add in the chickpeas and turn on the food processor again.  Slowly add in the ice water until your desired hummus consistency is reached.
  4. Lastly, taste your hummus and adjust any flavors needed.  You may want to add extra garlic, salt, etc…  Add hummus to a bowl and garnish with toasted sesame oil, roasted peanuts and cilantro, if desired.
