Instructions

1

Peel the Chickpeas

Rub drained chickpeas between paper towels to remove skins. This step makes the hummus extra smooth and creamy for kids.

2

Blend the Base

Add tahini and lemon juice to a food processor and blend for 1 minute until fluffy. This whips air into the tahini for a lighter texture.

3

Add Remaining Ingredients

Add chickpeas, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Blend for 2 minutes, drizzling in cold water and olive oil until super smooth.
