High Protein Hemp Hummus

Author - Gena Hamshaw
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Yields: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup shelled hemp seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt (or to taste)
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked chickpeas (1 can, drained and rinsed)
  • 1 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/3 cup water (more as needed)
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Place the hemp seeds and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the S blade. Grind the hemp seeds for about 30 seconds, or until they've formed a fine meal.
  • Add the chickpeas, lemon, garlic, tahini, cumin, and pepper to the food processor. Pulse a few times. With the motor of the processor running, add the water through the spout of the processor. Process all ingredients until smooth and creamy (about 1-2 minutes), stopping every now and then to scrape the bowl down. Season to taste with black pepper and serve.
