Roasted Pumpkin Hummus

Your hummus deserves a fall makeover: Roasted Pumpkin Hummus. Serve the beautiful golden hummus with homemade crackers for a real crowd-pleasing snack!

Roasted Pumpkin Hummus

Hummus and crackers are a match made in heaven. Especially this beautiful golden Roasted Pumpkin Hummus and homemade Rosemary Crackers. These are #snackgoals right here.

I've roasted the pumpkin to bring out the flavors, then added chickpeas, tahini and all the other typical ingredients for hummus in a blender. Blend. Done. Easy and delicious.

I've sprinkled the hummus with black and white sesame seeds, as well as finely chopped parsley. Then drizzled it with olive oil. So good!

If the hummus turns out a bit too thin, place it in the fridge for half an hour or so. It will thicken up.

Serve the pumpkin hummus with ...

  • Soft Baked Pretzels
  • Crispy Bread Chips
  • Pretzel Garlic Knots
  • Everything Crackers
  • Golden Turmeric Crackers
  • Gluten-Free Chickpea Crackers
  • Vegan Za'atar Breadsticks
