  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 3 3/4 teaspoons dried basil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 3/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 4-5 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon crushed red peppers (or to taste)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons oregano
  • 3/4 cup tomato paste

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients: Gather all the ingredients including garbanzo beans, water, dried basil, salt, nutritional yeast, olive oil, garlic cloves, crushed red peppers, oregano, and tomato paste to ensure everything is ready for blending.
  2. Blend ingredients: Place all the ingredients into a food processor or high-powered blender. Process or blend the mixture until the hummus reaches your desired texture, smooth or somewhat chunky, depending on your preference.

Notes

  • Tomato Paste Tip: Tomato paste thickness can vary by brand. If your hummus seems too thick, add a small amount of water or olive oil until you reach your desired consistency.
  • Adjust Heat: Start with a little crushed red pepper and adjust to taste to prevent it from becoming too spicy.
  • Bean Options: You can substitute other mild beans like navy or white beans for a different flavor and color.
  • Cheese Options: For a non-dairy version, consider adding a small amount of powdered parmesan.
  • For Easier Digestion: Follow tips for How to De-Gas Beans before making this hummus to reduce gas symptoms.
