Quick and Easy Beetroot Hummus Recipe. Great as a dip, appetizer, or on sandwiches.

Quick Beetroot Hummus

This super simple beet hummus recipe is the perfect appetizer. It's super smooth, creamy, and full of fresh beet flavor. Serve with pita, crackers, or fresh veggies!

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
YIELD 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 can chickpeas (430 g/15 oz), drained and rinsed
  • 2 medium cooked beetroots (read above post on how to cook them), cut into quarters
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • zest and juice from 1 medium lemon
  • 2-3 tablespoons tahini
  • 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions

  1. Place the beetroots, chickpeas and garlic into a food processor and process for 1 minute until ground. Add all the remaining ingredients and process until creamy. It should have some grainy texture, that's ok. If it's dry or you want to thin it out and make it more creamy, add more tahini or water, until you like the consistency.
  2. Adjust seasonings, adding more salt, cumin, olive oil, or lemon juice if needed.

  3. Scrape into a serving bowl to use immediately. I like to serve it at room temperature. Refrigerate in an airtight container if you aren't serving right away.

  4. Beetroot hummus will keep in the fridge, covered well, for 4-5 days.
