Author: Hint of Joe's

Serves: 10

Ingredients:

• 2 15-ounce cans chickpeas (garbanzo beans), rinsed
• 2 clove garlic
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Instructions:

1. Add chickpeas, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, water, and salt to a food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy (if needed, add more water one tablespoon at a time and continue blending until it reaches your desired consistency).
2. Transfer to a bowl. Sprinkle with paprika before serving.

Notes:

For a smoother and creamier texture, remove the skins from the chickpeas by gently pinching them prior to step 1.
