Quick and Easy Pumpkin Hummus
‘Tis the season for pumpkin! If you’re like me and you love anything made with pumpkin or pumpkin spice, you’re in for a treat. This pumpkin hummus is creamy, savory, a little bit sweet, and extremely addictive! (Even if you’re not a pumpkin lover, you’ve got to give this pumpkin hummus recipe a try! It’s so good it will make you a believer.) Hummus alone is one of my favorite snacks and I didn’t think it could get any better, but pumpkin adds the BEST richness and flavor to it! It’s a must-make for any party or get-together this season. As if you needed more reasons to make this amazing fall appetizer, it’s healthy, too! Hummus is packed with protein and fiber as well as vitamins and antioxidants from the pumpkin purée! Anything that’s healthy but tastes this good is a winner in my book. Pair it with naan, pita bread, or your favorite chips! I know you and your guests will love it as much as I do!
Ingredients for Pumpkin Hummus
This rich and tasty fall snack only takes a handful of pantry staples to make! I keep a lot of pumpkin puree on hand this time of year, so this is one of my go-to recipes to make in a pinch! All you need to do is pick up some tahini and then break out your spice rack to complete your tasty pumpkin hummus!
Canned Chickpeas: You’ll want your chickpeas to be drained and rinsed before you add them to your food processor. Pure Pumpkin Puree: Adds the best smooth, silky pumpkin flavor! You can use canned pumpkin puree or make your own from scratch using this recipe here.Garlic: Garlic adds savory flavor to the hummus that balances out the sweetness from the pumpkin perfectly.Tahini: Tahini is a sesame paste that adds the best flavor and texture to hummus.Seasonings: A little warm spice is the BEST addition to the flavor of pumpkin. I added chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt.Lemon Juice: Lemon juice helps to brighten the overall flavor of the hummus.Olive Oil: Helps to adjust the hummus and make it nice and smooth.
How to Make Pumpkin Hummus

Beans: Chickpeas or garbanzo beans are traditionally the bean you would use in hummus recipes, but feel free to use a white bean if needed. Great northern beans, white chili beans, or even pinto beans would work!Tahini: Tahini is a sesame seed paste and gives the hummus a delicious nutty flavor. If you need to substitute the tahini, I would choose a mild nut-flavored butter like almond butter or cashew butter.Spices: Play around with your spices if you are daring! The spices in this hummus complement each other well, but you can add or take out any spices you would like. The next time I make this, I am going to add coriander and thyme!Serving Ideas: Carrots, cucumbers, celery, green peppers, pita crackers, a sliced baguette, crostini…the dipping options are endless for this dip!
