Ingredients
-
5 unpeeled garlic cloves
-
2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided
-
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
-
½ cup tahini
-
⅓ cup fresh lemon juice
-
1 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1 teaspoon salt
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
-
Place unpeeled garlic cloves in the middle of a large square of aluminum foil. Drizzle cloves with 1 tablespoon olive oil; wrap in foil.
-
Roast in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool, 5 to 10 minutes.
-
Squeeze roasted garlic out of the peels into a food processor. Add garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, cumin, salt, and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Process until very creamy.
Tips
Use about 2 to 3 tablespoons of fresh parsley or mint for a fresh herby taste, or try adding 1 teaspoon of curry or paprika. Get crazy — hummus is amazingly versatile!
For a Tuscan-style hummus, substitute great northern beans for the garbanzos and add fresh basil.
