Garlic Hummus

Good with carrot and cucumber slices

1st time, I've ever made hummus and measured by heart. I used 2 cans of chickpeas, which is enough for dinner, lunch, and an in between snacking for the next 2-4 days, barring stored properly. I did require quite a bit more water than suggested, just to help with the blending. Easy to make up and add in as you go, and the fresh garlic is just perfect for it. It gave the hummus like a mustard tang to it - loved it! Made this as a dip with a raw veg platter and toasted sourdough bread, added extra paprika and chili flakes, with extra virgin olive oil. It's super easy, super versatile. Healthy and filling.

I would like to try adding 2 tbsp of tahini (optional).

My husband was a little shocked about the spicy kick. Saving the recipe so I can make it again. I'll tweak it here and there if I want a slightly different flavor.🥰

The recipe can be improved by stating that the water in the can of chickpeas should be added and not discarded. If for health reasons, the can water is discarded, add 1 tbs of water and 1 tbs of olive oil extra to prevent dryness.

Substituted paprika for the cumin... just cuz 😇

I used canned chickpeas but the juice of a fresh lemon. My family loved the flavor. I would love to try this with dried beans sometime.

Delicious! Going to try switching more oil for less water next time. It's got a whipped texture my husband doesn't care for.

I didn't like the cumin or the raw garlic. I'll roast the garlic next time.

I add Tahini to mine

Super good, the cumin definitely adds a kick to it! I added more garlic, it’s perfect!

i put in more garlic and no cumin (couldn't find it), very tasty, i recommend. very fast also

It's missing tahini

The fresh garlic was a bit spicy, but good!

The consistency was a bit grainy but I added tahini and Greek seasoning. Altogether delicious and easy though!

I read one of the comments that said it needed more EVOO, so I added an extra tsp. I think it still needs more than that. I also added another clove of garlic, well, because I think I like garlic a little more than most.

Needs more olive oil

It's not exactly what you would expect, but that's not a bad thing! We're looking at ways to cut fat intake, and this hummus is perfect! Store bought brands can run us up 12-20g of fat per serving, and this is less than half, with the same (if not better) nutritional content! This is going to be in our weekly rotation!

We really enjoyed this with home made pitta chips 😋 Very easy to make!

Very good, I’m a garlic addict so I added more and it ended up being very good

Love this recipe bc sometimes im too lazy to get tahini 🫣

Too much garlic for my taste.

Added jalapeños and cilantro, it was perfect

Pour ingredients directly into blender

Yum

Just checking to see if on this recipe why you do not use tahini to add to your hummus

Tripled the garlic
