This 5 ingredient hummus has such a nice sweet flavor! Enjoy it with chips or on some toast as a healthy snack! I saw this recipe on a Giada episode and fell in love. It has everything I love so I decided to quickly make it one Super Bowl Sunday. It was a pretty big hit. Her recipe called for way more oil but since I like to keep things under a certain amount of calories I omitted it. Turns out, the dip didn’t even need all that oil. It’s great just like this!
Ingredients:
1 medium sweet potato
1c canned chickpeas
1/4c almond butter
1/2 lemon, squeezed
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp water
Garlic
Salt
Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Poke holes in sweet potato and then bake it in the oven for about an hour. Remove, slit it in half and let it cool.
Combine all ingredients into a blender except oil. Blend well and add oil to the top while it’s spinning.
Serves 8 (2 tbsp each)
