Butternut Squash Hummus Dip is a creamy and flavorful dip made with roasted butternut squash and chickpeas.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • ¼ cup tahini
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Water, as needed for consistency

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the cubed butternut squash on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes or until tender and slightly caramelized.
  3. Allow the roasted squash to cool for a few minutes.
  4. In a food processor, combine the roasted butternut squash, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic powder, cumin, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  6. Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, lemon juice, or spices as needed.
  7. Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and drizzle with olive oil. You can garnish with a sprinkle of paprika or fresh herbs if desired.
