Caramelized Garlic Hummus

Whether you’re planning a party or just looking for a nutritious snack during the sugar loaded holidays, this hummus is the perfect appetizer for you.  The Caramelized Garlic Infused Oil gives a subtle but powerful garlic flavor while the lemon adds a tangy kick.  It is truly a divine combo.  


Because this is a no-tahini hummus, using only olive oil and very few ingredients, the quality of the oil is very important.   The premium quality of the Ampersand Olive Oil is perfect for keeping this hummus smooth and creamy.  It’s also actually vegan by nature, so you can bring it to parties where you’re expecting vegans/vegetarians and it’ll make them happy.  Everyone loves a good hummus dip!

    I make large batches of hummus. Enough for me for a week or two. I found my instant pot cooks these beans up wonderfully without the long soak time. I put 2 cups of rinsed beans in 8 cups of water for 1 hour in the instant pot. My Ninja food processor smooths it out quite nicely skins and all.
