This easy homemade hummus recipe is smooth, creamy, and the perfect snack with some raw veggies, in a wrap, or on crackers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • One 15 ounce can ( ~ 2 cups) drained canned chickpeas (or cook your own)
  • 2 Tbsp tahini
  • 1 medium clove garlic, minced
  • 3 Tbsp e.v. olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp water
  • 3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients into food processor or blender.
  • Blend until smooth (let the food processor run for at least a minute or two).  Scrape down the sides and run the processor again.  
  • Add more water or Lemon Juice to make creamier or tangier if desired.
