Ingredients

• 15 oz Canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
• 3 tbsp Tahini
• 3 tbsp Lemon juice
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp Ground cumin
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Smoked paprika (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped
• 2 tbsp Kalamata olives, sliced

• 4 pieces Flatbread (such as pita or naan), for serving

Directions

Step 1

In a food processor or blender, combine the drained chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic cloves, ground cumin, and salt.

Step 2

Blend the ingredients until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. If the mixture is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until the hummus reaches your desired consistency.

Step 3

Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl or platter and spread it out with the back of a spoon to create small wells for the toppings.

Step 4

Sprinkle the smoked paprika (if using) over the surface of the hummus for a touch of smoky flavor.

Step 5

Evenly distribute the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, sliced Kalamata olives, chopped basil, crumbled feta cheese, and toasted pine nuts across the hummus.

Step 6

Serve the Tuscan hummus with warm flatbread and fresh vegetable sticks on the side for dipping.
