This is 50% hummus, 50% babaganoush, and 100% delicious. Roasted eggplant in hummus provides great creaminess and fantastic flavor without the need for oil. The subtle flavor of almond butter adds some necessary fats, and complements everything else perfectly. Check out my roasted beet hummus as well for a similar concept https://s.samsungfood.com/5LSZ5
