How to Make Beet Hummus

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and chop 1 medium beet into 1-inch pieces.
  2. Roast the beet pieces on a baking sheet for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
  3. While the beet roasts, drain and rinse 1 (15-ounce) can of chickpeas.
  4. Once the beet is cool enough to handle, peel and roughly chop it.
  5. In a food processor, combine the roasted beet, chickpeas, 1/4 cup tahini, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 cloves garlic, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup water.
  6. Process until completely smooth, adding more water as needed to reach your desired consistency.
  7. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lemon juice for tartness, salt for saltiness, or cumin for earthiness.
  8. Serve immediately with pita bread, crackers, or vegetables.
