World's Best Hummus

World's Best Hummus!!


So Jon and I are OBSESSED with this hummus recipe! It has the perfect amount of heat, garlic, and everything else you would want out of this delicious garbanzo bean creation! 

Here's the recipe:

Makes 4 Cups

2 (15 1/2 oz) cans garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1 large garlic clove, mashed
1 small jalapeno chile, (we kept the seeds from half) coarsely chopped
2 Tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons tahini (found near bbq sauce in grocery store)
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
Juice of 1 lime
1 Teaspoon agave nectar
1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro 
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin 
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

Directions:
Place the beans, garlic, jalapeno, tahini, lemon juice, lime juice, agave nectar, cilantro, cumin, cayenne, and salt in a food processor and blend until it is a smooth paste. Add the olive oil slowly in a thin stream and blend until smooth and well combined. Transfer to a bowl. Store in refrigerator for up to 3 days. 

**Make sure to taste and add additions as needed** 
We added a bit more garlic, and cayenne, but we doubled our batch
