Delicious, easy-to-make hummus that is better than anything you'll find at the store. The roasted garlic makes it great on its own or as a base for other flavored hummus.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups chickpeas 1 15-oz can; rinsed well and drained
- 2 TBSP unsalted tahini stir before using
- juice of one lemon 2-3 TBSP
- 12-15 cloves roasted garlic ~1 large head
- 1 tsp salt
- 2-3 TBSP extra virgin olive oil plus extra for serving
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to food processor, except the olive oil.
- Blend well until it begins to look like a gritty paste, scraping the sides every once in a while. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- While still blending, drizzle in olive oil.
- Continue blending for another minute, continuing to scrape down sides of the bowl , until desired consistency. If hummus is too thick, add a little extra olive oil to thin it out.
- Transfer hummus to bowl and drizzle with more olive oil immediately prior to serving.
