How to make Pumpkin Hummus Recipe?
Its kind of pretty simple. You could use homemade pumpkin puree or use a store bought. I would prefer home made pumpkin puree to make this hummus, as the flavours are just out of the world. In- fact I am now thinking of writing a post for you, for making Homemade Pumpkin Puree. It’s a marvellous idea to stack them up in your freezer as well and use them in off season.
The next step is dump all the ingredients in the food processor and whizz until smooth.
This is a recipe for Pumpkin Hummus without tahini. But feel free to add if you like it.
