The Best Creamy Roasted Beet Hummus Food

CREAMY BEET HUMMUS

Steps:

• In the large bowl of a food processor fitted with blade, place chickpeas, cooked beets, tahini, garlic, lemon juice. Season with salt and spices.
• Run processor for a bit, and while it's running, add 2 ice cubes (this helps whip the beet hummus to a nice creamy consistency.)
• Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking. Run processor again if the hummus is too thick yet, adding a little more ice as it runs (you can let it run for 4 minutes or so until you reach your desired creamy texture.)
• Transfer beet hummus to a bowl. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle feta and parsley on top. Serve with pita wedges or homemade pita chips and veggies for dipping.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F
• Next, wash, peel, and slice your beet into quarters.
• Place beet slices on a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet and place in the oven for ~1 hour or until a knife when inserted can easily slide through the beets.*
• Once beets are finished cooking remove from oven and allow to cool slightly.
• Next, in a food processor pulse the beets until only small pieces remain.
• Then combine drained white beans, bean liquid, lemon juice, tahini, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
• Blend on high until smooth and creamy.
• Taste your hummus and add more salt/pepper or lemon per your taste. At this point you can also add a few more tablespoons of bean liquid or water if needed for a thinner desired consistency.
• Top the hummus with a sprinkle of chopped pistachios and a drizzle of olive oil.
• Serve with sliced veggies or crackers and enjoy!
