Ingredients

1 x (15 oz.) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 organic lemon, juiced

1/2 cup tahini, well mixed

3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling

1 garlic clove, mashed into a paste

1/2 tsp. kosher salt

1/4 tsp. ground cumin

1/4 tsp. paprika, for garnish

2 Tbsp. water, or as needed for consistency

Method

Start by prepping your ingredients: Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Juice the lemon until you have about 3 Tbsp. of juice. Mash the garlic clove into a paste.

Combine the chickpeas, lemon juice, garlic paste, tahini, salt, cumin, and 2 Tbsp. of water in a food processor.

Process the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. If the hummus is too thick, add more water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.

With the motor running, stream in 3 Tbsp. of olive oil and continue to process until the hummus is very light and creamy.

Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt if needed.

Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, sprinkle with paprika, and drizzle with a bit more olive oil before serving.
