Equipment

  • 1 Food Processor

Ingredients
  

  • 15 Ounces Chickpeas Also known as garbanzo beans.
  • 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice Freshly squeezed works best.
  • 1 Tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 Clove Garlic
  • ½ Teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ Teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Drain the can of chickpeas, rinse well, then pat dry. Next, add all ingredients into a food processor. Blend on low speed until most of the ingredients are blended together. Scrape down the edges as needed.
  • Once the hummus is pretty smooth, turn the food processor to the high setting for a creamy consistency. Add extra olive oil if it has trouble blending.
  • Store in the refrigerator for at least an hour to allow all of the flavors to blend together.

Notes

Expert Tips

  • If you have trouble blending, you can add a little cold water or more olive oil.
  • Make sure you scrape down the edges with a small spatula.
  • Be sure to store the hummus in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving. This allows the flavors to blend together, and it tastes best when chilled!

How to Store Leftovers

Store leftover hummus in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Best served and enjoyed fresh!
