Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Onions

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes until the onions are golden brown and caramelized.

  2. 2

    Blend the Hummus

    In a food processor, combine chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, ground cumin, and water. Blend until smooth.

  3. 3

    Add Caramelized Onions

    Add the caramelized onions to the hummus mixture in the food processor and blend until fully incorporated and smooth.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and serve with crudités and pita bread.
