Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed 🥫
- 5–6 Medjool dates, pitted (soak in hot water for 10 minutes if needed) 🌴
- 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder 🍫
- 2–3 tbsp olive oil 🫒
- 1 tsp vanilla extract 🍦
- 1/4 tsp salt 🧂
- 2–3 tbsp water (adjust for desired consistency) 💧
Optional Add-ins:
- 1–2 tbsp maple syrup if you like it sweeter 🍁
- A pinch of cinnamon for a warm touch ✨
Instructions
Blend it up! Add the chickpeas, dates, cocoa powder, olive oil, vanilla, and salt to a food processor or blender.
Start blending, adding water a tablespoon at a time until the hummus reaches your desired creaminess. You want it smooth and spreadable!
Give it a taste and adjust the sweetness or cocoa level if needed. Feel free to add a splash of maple syrup if you like it extra sweet.
Transfer the hummus to a bowl and serve with apple slices, strawberries, pretzels, or even spread it on toast!
