Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
  • Remove the top of a head of garlic so that the cloves are exposed, then drizzle the head with olive oil, wrap it in aluminium foil, and roast it for approximately thirty to thirty-five minutes, or until the cloves are tender and golden brown.

  • Wait until it has cooled down before attempting to extract the cloves of roasted garlic.
  • The chickpeas, pumpkin puree, roasted garlic cloves, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper should be mixed together in a food processor.

 

  • The ingredients should be blended until they are smooth and creamy, and the sides of the bowl should be scraped down as necessary to ensure that everything is thoroughly combined.
  • If the hummus appears to be too thick, you can adjust the consistency by adding a tablespoon or two of water to achieve the desired level of thickness.

  • Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and drizzle it with a little bit of olive oil once you have reached a point where you are satisfied with the flavour and consistency.

 

  • To enhance both the flavour and the appearance of the dish, you can, if you so choose, sprinkle it with toasted pumpkin seeds and a pinch of smoked paprika.
  • You can serve the roasted garlic pumpkin hummus with the dippers of your choice, such as pita chips, sliced vegetables, or crusty bread. Every bite will bring you the creamy, savory-sweet goodness that autumn has to offer.
