Ingredients
  

  • 1 15 ounces can chick peas or garbanzo beans, drained & rinsed
  • 1 medium avocado, pitted
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon tahini

Method
 

  1. Drain and rinse the can of chickpeas thoroughly.
  2. Pit and scoop out the flesh of the medium avocado.
  3. Combine the drained chickpeas, avocado flesh, garlic clove, lemon juice, kosher salt, olive oil, and tahini in a food processor.
  4. Puree until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Serve immediately or chill before serving with desired accompaniments.

Notes

- For extra smooth avocado hummus, process for an additional minute, scraping down the sides as needed.
- If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a tablespoon of water or more lemon juice until desired texture is reached.
- Store leftover avocado hummus in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent browning.
