• 1 tsp Ground cumin
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water to remove excess sodium. Set aside.

Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a food processor.

Step 3

Add the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the food processor.

Start blending on a medium setting, then gradually increase to high. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides if needed, ensuring a smooth consistency.

Step 5

Slowly add the water while blending to achieve the desired consistency. The hummus should be creamy and well-blended.

Step 6

Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if required by adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.

Step 7

Once smooth and well mixed, transfer the hummus to a serving bowl.

Step 8

Garnish the top with chopped fresh cilantro and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately with pita chips, fresh vegetables, or as a spread on sandwiches and wraps.

Step 10

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
