Beethummus Recipes

CREAMY BEET HUMMUS

Steps:

• In the large bowl of a food processor fitted with blade, place chickpeas, cooked beets, tahini, garlic, lemon juice. Season with salt and spices.
• Run processor for a bit, and while it's running, add 2 ice cubes (this helps whip the beet hummus to a nice creamy consistency.)
• Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking. Run processor again if the hummus is too thick yet, adding a little more ice as it runs (you can let it run for 4 minutes or so until you reach your desired creamy texture.)
• Transfer beet hummus to a bowl. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle feta and parsley on top. Serve with pita wedges or homemade pita chips and veggies for dipping.

EASY BEET HUMMUS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Pour the rinsed chickpeas onto half the area of a kitchen towel. Fold the other half of the towel on top of the beans, and rub them so that the skins start to come off.
• Place all of the peeled beans in the bowl of a food processor, along with the salt, cumin, garlic, and beets. Turn the processor on to break up the mixture.
• With the food processor running, pour in the lemon juice and olive oil, and let the processor run until the mixture is smooth.
• Serve with your choice of dipping chips or veggies.
• Enjoy!

BEET HUMMUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place the beet, olive oil, garlic and onion powder and salt and pepper in a small cast iron skillet or small baking dish and toss together so everything gets coated.
• Bake for 35 minutes or until soft and tender. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
• Add the roasted beet, chickpeas, tahini, garlic powder and lemon juice to a blender and pulse until smooth. This will take several minutes and remember to check for consistency, you want it completely smooth.
• With the blender on low speed, slowly pour in the olive oil and continue blending until silky and smooth.
• Add salt and pepper to taste and blend again as needed.
• Serve immediately garnished with optional toppings or refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to serve.

BEET HUMMUS

Steps:

• Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a low boil. Add beet and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Remove beet and allow to cool, or place in a bowl of cold water. Peel beet, cut into small pieces, and transfer to the bowl of a food processor.
• Add tahini to beet pieces and blend until smooth. Add lemon juice, garlic, and some of the chickpeas; pulse until combined. Continue adding chickpeas in small amounts, blending after each addition. Stream olive oil in slowly, with the processor running, until hummus is smooth but still thick and spreadable. Add a bit of water if needed.
