Description

Delicious peanut butter hummus made without sesame seeds! The perfect snack to pair with veggies, crackers, or pita chips — or use it as a spread or sauce for extra flavour.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 × 400g (14 oz) can chickpeas, drained (liquid reserved*)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ¼ cup peanut butter
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½1 teaspoon salt, to taste
  • 1/3 cup reserved chickpea liquid*


Instructions

  1. Drain the chickpeas, reserving the liquid (aquafaba).
  2. Add the chickpeas, peanut butter, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, and salt to a food processor or high-speed blender. Pour in 1/3 cup of the reserved chickpea liquid to help thin it out as needed. Blend for 2–3 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl until smooth and creamy.
  3. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Then drop in an ice cube and blend again — this helps keep the hummus fresh and gives it a light, fluffy texture.
  4. Spoon into a bowl and top with fresh herbs, roasted peanuts, a sprinkle of cumin, and a drizzle of olive oil.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Drizzle with olive oil before sealing for extra freshness.
