Instructions
- Optional (but recommended): Soak dried chickpeas in 4 cups water overnight. Drain soaking liquid and follow the next steps.
- Rinse chickpeas under cold water.
- Add the chickpeas to the Instant Pot along with the water, salt, garlic and bay leaves.
- Pressure cook: For overnight soaked chickpeas: Set to high pressure mode for 30 minutes. For no-soak chickpeas: Set to high pressure mode for 60 minutes.
- When the Instant Pot beeps, let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes, then release any remaining pressure manually.
- Drain the cooked chickpeas and transfer to a bowl and cover them with cold water.
- (Optional) Place your hands into the bowl and move the chickpeas around so the outside shell falls off. Scoop up the shells using a slotted spoon and remove them. While this step is not necessary will make your hummus much more creamier and delicious. Drain the chickpeas and set aside.
For Hummus
- Transfer the chickpeas to a food processor.
- Add the tahini, garlic, cumin powder, paprika, and lemon juice. Blend to a smooth paste while the chickpeas are still warm. Start at a low speed, then increase the speed slowly to high. Blend until smooth.Add cold water as needed to get a creamy texture.Slowly add olive oil one tablespoon at a time while blending. Leave 1-2 teaspoons for topping while serving.
- Transfer to a bowl. Sprinkle some ground cumin and paprika on top. Garnish with some finely chopped parsley. Drizzle some olive oil and enjoy!

Notes
- Using canned chickpeas: You can skip the pressure cooking part, and start with the blending steps. If the canned chickpeas have salt, do not put salt initially. Add as desired once you have blended the hummus.
