Sweet and Spicy Pumpkin Hummus

Servings 2 cups

Ingredients

  • 3-4 chipotles in adobo sauce, finely chopped (canned)
  • 1 tsp adobo sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 heaping tablespoon of honey
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp cayenne powder
  • ½ tsp chili powder 
  • 15 oz can of chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 15 oz can of pure pumpkin puree
  • 2-3 tbsp olive oil 
  • Course ground salt 
For serving
  • Tortilla chips, pita chips, or crostini

Instructions

  • Prepare the hummus topping. In a small bowl, combine the finely chopped chipotle peppers, 1 teaspoon of adobo sauce, minced garlic, honey, cinnamon, cayenne powder, and chili powder. Stir together until well incorporated. Set aside. 
  • In a food processor, add the chickpeas, pureed pumpkin, olive oil and salt. Blend until very smooth. This can take about 2 minutes. 
  • Add a couple of teaspoons of the adobo garlic mixture to the pumpkin hummus in the food processor and blend again for about 15 seconds. 
  • If the texture looks too thick, add one tablespoon of water, process, and repeat as necessary until you get your desired texture. 
  • Plate the hummus and top with the remaining chipotle garlic mixture.
  • Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with your favorite tortilla chips, pita chips, or crostini.
