Ingredients
Roasted Garlic Hummus
- 1 medium head cauliflower, about 6 cups
- ¼ cup Eaton Hemp Hemp Hearts
- ¼ cup tahini paste
- 4 tablespoon olive oil, divided
- 1-2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 2-3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- ½ tsp. salt
- 2-4 tbsp. water
Toppings (optional)
- olive oil
- fresh parsley
- cumin or paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F. Cut the cauliflower into small florets. Toss the cauliflower florets in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and spread evenly onto a large baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the cauliflower is tender and cooked all the way through.
- Remove from the oven and transfer to a large food processor. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until very smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. You will need to add 2-4 tablespoons of water to reach desired consistency. Add 1 tablespoon at a time. Once you have smooth hummus, taste and adjust seasonings.
- Serve with desired toppings and crackers, pita, or vegetables.
Notes
Serving and Storing - Sprinkle with extra hemp hearts and serve with veggies like celery, cucumbers, and red bell peppers, and pita bread or crackers. Store cauliflower hummus in an airtight and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Alternatively, you can freeze hummus for up to one month.
Recipe Tips
- Don't skip the roasting! Roasting the cauliflower enhances the flavor with a delicious buttery smoky flavor.
- Keep pulsing the hummus until it becomes smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides of the food processor from time to time to make sure that the veggie mix blends evenly.
- Add water slowly to reach the desired consistency. Once you add water to the dip it may dilute the taste slightly. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Can’t find tahini? Make your own by blending sesame seeds in a food processor until smooth and creamy.
