Ingredients

  • 1 tin organic chickpeas (425g)
  • 1 large avocado
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1-2 tbsp crushed garlic
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1-2 tsp celtic sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp chili flakes (optional)
  • pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  • Open, drain, thoroughly rinse and dry the chickpeas from the can.
  • Crush garlic cloves (if using) to your desired amount*.
  • Place chickpeas and crushed garlic into a food processor and add all other ingredients.
  • Combine for one minute and stop to scrape down the sides before mixing for a further minute. Continue to do so until the hummus is smooth and all ingredients are combined.
  • Optional: if your hummus is too thick, try adding 1-2 tbsp of water or extra olive oil, to thin out the consistency.
  • Serve straight away or transfer to an airtight container to store in the fridge for up to three days.

Notes

*I like this recipe with LOADS of garlic. Be sure to alter to your liking.
