I really don’t know why I never made my own hummus before. This recipe was SO easy to follow! I cannot go back to boring store bought hummus. I added a couple extra garlic cloves because that’s how I roll. I also added paprika. It was perfect!

In reply to HaleyB. Hi HaleyB! Adding a few ice cubes help aerate the hummus and make it fluffier. Enjoy!

Greetings to you!!!
I made your hummus recipe tonight. I is soooooooooo delishous!
I made a couple of changes. I did not boil the peas in baking soda. I cooked my peas in the Instant pot for 15 mins, they were soaked.
I did not have to add more water.
And I never buy tahini, but I did sub sunflower seeds for the hummus because it does not have much of a taste like peanut butter.
The way you spiced it up is wonderful.
Thank you so much!

Delicious light and so easy to make, but I only used two tablespoons of tahini. So much lighter than shop bought ones. Great recipe as always 🙂

This recipe is soooo good. I have been making hummus for years but this is the creamiest. I made one small change; I cooked the drained chickpeas with the baking soda in the instant pot and cooked for two minutes.

This recipe is fabulous! The super silky smooth consistency is so much better than what most hummus is like!

I often do not have tahini on hand, but I always have sesame seeds so I just threw in 90 grams of sesame seeds which is the same amount (by weight) as the 6 tablespoons of tahini. With a high speed blender, they purée up along with everything else just perfectly.

I increased the lemon juice by almost double, and used roasted garlic instead of raw, increasing the amount to four cloves.

In reply to Cait. So happy you love it! I generally don't recommend freezing hummus as the texture isn't as smooth and creamy afterward. But in a pinch, it's not terrible. Hope that helps!

I made this recipe as-is but reduced the salt to less than 1/4 tsp. It was sooo good!

Would you happen to know if this freezes well? I'd love to make a big batch and freeze individual portions. Thanks!

In reply to Nicole. That sounds like a good plan! :)

I used a food processor and it still came out really nice. I might want to do it with roasted garlic, I found the aftertaste of the raw garlic kind of sharp. Thanks!

Super smooth, quick to put together since most is letting the chickpeas cook which is mainly hands off. I think the bagel seasoning when serving will be great.

I make a lot of hummus and this is by far the creamiest!

Dreamy!!! I always wondered what the secrets were!!! I was using an immersion blender so had to leave out the ice but it was still great! I added a whole tsp of salt and a tad more lemon juice. Also used chickpea water instead of water, just because it was there! Thanks again, Sam!

In reply to Cassandra. Hi Cassandra, yes I have tried this before. Personally, I found it watered it down too much, so I didn't like it, but of course, if you love it, go for it!

In reply to Karen. I list my kitchen tool recommendations here. Also, note that I prefer a blender for this recipe, and not a food processor. Enjoy!!
