Prep Time10 minutes
Total Time10 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 15-ounce can garbanzo beans drained and rinsed, with skins removed
  • 1 medium garlic clove peeled and smashed
  • 1 whole lemon juiced
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1/3 cup water add additional tablespoons as needed for smooth consistency
  • 1 cup baby spinach packed with stems removed
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt adjust to taste

Instructions

  • Begin by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure your garbanzo beans are drained and rinsed well; removing the skins will help create a smoother texture.
  • In your food processor, combine the garbanzo beans, smashed garlic, lemon juice, tahini, and salt. Pulse these ingredients together until they are well mixed.
  • Next, add the baby spinach and 1/3 cup of water to the mixture. Blend until the spinach is fully incorporated and the hummus reaches your desired smoothness. If it’s too thick, add additional water one tablespoon at a time until you achieve a creamy consistency.
  • Taste your hummus and adjust the salt and lemon juice to your liking. If you prefer a more garlicky flavor, feel free to add another clove of garlic.
  • Transfer your delicious hummus to a serving bowl. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkle your choice of chopped herbs, Everything Bagel seasoning, or zaatar spice on top for added flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Store hummus in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
