Ingredients

  • 1 15 ounce can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil or coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons tahini can sub almond butter or peanut butter
  • ¼ cup dutch cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

  • Add chickpeas, oil, maple syrup and tahini to a food processor and process until the chickpeas are smooth, at least 1-2 minutes. Add in cocoa powder, vanilla extract and sea salt and process until the mixture is combined. If the mixture breaks (and gets very grainy), add in a tablespoon of warm water at a time while the food processor is running, until it is smooth again.
  • Transfer hummus to a bowl and sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if desired. Serve immediately or refrigerate to thicken up and serve when ready. Serve with fresh fruit, crackers, cookies or pretzels.

Notes

  1. Hummus will keep, refrigerated up to 5 days.
