Baked hummus is a rich and wholesome variation of the classic Middle Eastern chickpea dip. Made primarily from chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice, this dish is typically seasoned with spices such as cumin or paprika. Unlike traditional hummus, baked hummus is placed in the oven, creating a slightly crispy golden top while preserving its creamy texture underneath. Chickpeas provide an excellent source of plant-based protein and fiber, essential for digestion and energy. Tahini and olive oil contribute heart-healthy fats, while lemon and garlic add antioxidants to support overall wellness. While nutritious, baked hummus can be calorie-dense depending on the amount of oil used, so portion control is key. Perfect as a dip or a spread, this dish honors Mediterranean culinary traditions while offering a healthful addition to any meal.
