Ingredients

• 1 15-ounce can canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
• 0.5 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
• 3 tablespoons water (or reserved chickpea liquid)
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
• 2 pieces extra sun-dried tomatoes (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Add the drained and rinsed chickpeas, sun-dried tomatoes, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and water (or reserved chickpea liquid) to a food processor or high-powered blender.

Step 2

Sprinkle in the ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes creamy and smooth. Pause occasionally to scrape down the sides of the food processor with a spatula to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 4

If the hummus is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of water at a time until the desired consistency is reached.

Step 5

Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice, if desired.

Step 6

Scoop the hummus into a bowl or serving dish. For garnish, drizzle with a little olive oil, sprinkle with smoked paprika, and top with chopped parsley and extra sun-dried tomatoes if using.

Step 7

Serve immediately with pita bread, fresh veggies, crackers, or use as a spread for sandwiches or wraps.

Step 8

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
