Creamy Beet Hummus with Toast

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Quick Meals Appetizers
The earthy notes of classic hummus are elevated by the natural sweetness and vibrant color of beets. This isn't just a dip; it's a visual experience. The bitterness of tahini and the natural sugars of the beet create a perfect balance.

  • Food processor or immersion blender

Allergen Information

⚠️ Sesame
⚠️ Wheat (Bread)

Instructions

1 ✓

Place the chickpeas, beets, tahini, garlic, and lemon juice into a food processor. Start blending.

Tip: For an extra smooth texture, peel the chickpeas first (time-consuming, but worth it).
2 ✓

While the machine is running, drizzle in the olive oil. If it's too thick, add a little water or the chickpea liquid (aquafaba).

Tip: Adding the oil slowly creates a creamy emulsion with the water content of the vegetables.
3 ✓

Taste and season with salt or spices as needed.

Tip: Due to the sweetness of the beets, it might need more salt or lemon than regular hummus.
4 ✓

Serve with toast, sprinkled with sesame seeds.
