Pumpkin Hummus

Ingredients:

 

2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil or olive oil

 

2 cloves garlic, minced

 

½ teaspoon ground cumin

 

1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), rinsed and drained

 

¾ cup canned pumpkin

 

¼ cup fresh lemon juice

 

¼ teaspoon salt

 

⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or more to taste

 

2 tablespoons toasted pumpkin seeds (pepitas)

 

Directions:

In a small skillet heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic, cumin, and coriander. Cook and stir for 30 seconds. Transfer oil mixture to a food processor or blender. Add chickpeas, pumpkin, lemon juice, salt, and cayenne pepper. Cover and process or blend until smooth, scraping sides as necessary.

Transfer hummus to a serving bowl. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours to blend flavors. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds. Serve with vegetable dippers.

As of this post this is my last can of pumpkin. Now to wait and see it anyone gets some. Aldi had some the week of 11/4/20 at 89 cents a can. Every other store has it for 2.00 and up. That's a big difference.

I was able to pick up 4 more cans when Aldi had them.
