The other day I (Ashley) was craving an everything bagel but had no time to make them. So I whipped up a dish of Everything Bagel Hummus and put it on toasted artisan bread. It was the perfect substitute! We’ve already posted a recipe for traditional hummus —this recipe is a spin off. It’s worth trying if you love EVERYTHING BAGELS & hummus!
For this recipe you will need to use a food processor to create a smooth hummus. The first step is to toast the seasonings that will be placed on top of the hummus. Sesame seeds, garlic, onion and poppy seeds are what make this the everything bagel hummus! Once the spices are sauteed, set them aside while you blend the hummus. When the hummus is nice and smooth, place the spices on top. This hummus is perfect on veggies or bread!
- 15 oz. can garbanzo beans, rinsed & drained
- ¼ cup tahini
- ¼ cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
- ½ tsp. cumin
- ½ tsp. onion powder
- ½ tsp. garlic salt
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1-2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil + extra if necessary to reach desired consistency
- 2-3 tbsp. water
- 1 tbsp. sesame seeds
- 1 tbsp. dried minced garlic
- 1 tbsp. dried minced onion
- 1 tbsp. poppy seeds
- In a small sauté pan over low heat toast the ingredients for everything bagel topping (sesame seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion and poppy seeds) until golden brown and fragrant, set aside.
- In the bowl of a food processor combine tahini & lemon juice and process for 1 minute; scrape edges and process for an additional 30-45 seconds. In order to get smooth creamy hummus you really need to take the time to process each set of ingredients and allow each to reach a really creamy smooth consistency.
- Add 2 tbsp. olive oil, minced garlic, kosher salt, cumin, onion powder and garlic salt to the food processor. Process for 30 seconds; scrape edges and process and additional 30-45 seconds.
- Add ½ the rinsed and drained chickpeas and process for 1 minute; scrape edges and add the remaining chickpeas and process for 1-2 minutes or longer if large chunks of chickpeas remain.
- Now in order to get that store-bought consistency slowly add 1 additional tbsp. of olive oil then water until you achieve the texture you’re looking for. Do not add too much water---no more than 3 tbsp. should be sufficient.
- Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with olive oil and top with everything bagel topping (the seasonings you sauteed in the first step).
- Serve & enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator!
