Vitamix hummus is a creamy, smooth, and flavorful version of the classic Middle Eastern dip that comes together in minutes using a high-speed blender. By blending the chickpeas with tahini, garlic, lemon juice, and a splash of olive oil in the Vitamix, you get an ultra-silky consistency that is hard to achieve with other methods. This recipe is perfect for serving as a healthy snack with fresh veggies, spreading on sandwiches, or as part of a mezze platter.
Vitamix Hummus Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- ¼ cup tahini
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2-3 tbsp lemon juice (to taste)
- 1-2 garlic cloves, minced
- ¼ tsp ground cumin
- ½ tsp salt (or to taste)
- 2-3 tbsp water (or more, for consistency)
- Paprika, olive oil, and parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Add the chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and salt to your Vitamix blender.
- Start the blender on low and gradually increase the speed to high, blending until the mixture becomes smooth. If the hummus is too thick, add water a tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or lemon juice as needed.
- Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with paprika, and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve your homemade Vitamix hummus with pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables for a satisfying and delicious snack.
