Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ginger
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Water (to adjust texture)
  • Optional toppings: maple syrup, pumpkin seeds, or granola

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chickpeas: Rinse and drain the chickpeas thoroughly. If desired, remove the skins for a creamier texture by gently pressing each chickpea between your fingers.
  • Blend the Ingredients: Add the chickpeas, pumpkin puree, almond butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, vanilla extract, and salt into a food processor or blender.
  • Process Until Smooth: Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If needed, add a few tablespoons of water to achieve the desired texture.
  • Serve: Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and garnish with a drizzle of maple syrup and a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds or granola.
  • Enjoy: Serve with fresh fruit, graham crackers, pretzels, or cinnamon-sugar pita chips.

Notes

  • Sweetness Adjustments: Add more maple syrup or a bit of honey if you prefer a sweeter dip.
  • Nut Butter Options: Swap almond butter for peanut butter or cashew butter for a different flavor profile.
  • Spices: Adjust the cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger to your taste, or add a pinch of cloves for extra warmth.
