Roasted Beet Hummus Recipe
Report
Roasted Beet Hummus is secretly super easy to make with only canned or dried chickpeas and a few other simple ingredients. This dip is a gorgeous color, and it's an incredibly healthy snack. Roasting the beets brings out a flavor so irresistible, you'll be making this weekly—don't say I didn't warn you.

Instructions
For the Roasted Beets:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Prep the beets: Using a vegetable peeler, peel the outer skin from beets. Remove the stem end and cut beets into ½ to 1-inch cubes.
- Season and bake: Add beets to a large bowl toss with 1 tablespoon oil, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Toss until well coated. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place cut beets in a single layer. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until beets are tender. Flip beets halfway through to ensure even roasting. Let beets cool to room temperature before proceeding.
- You can also roast whole beets instead.
For the Hummus:
- Puree the ingredients: Place roasted beets along with the remaining hummus ingredients into a large food processor. Puree for 2-3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl every 20-30 seconds. If you would like the hummus a little smoother, add additional water or oil.
- Serve beet hummus with lentil chips, vegetables or gluten free pretzels and enjoy!
Notes
- how to cook chickpeas
- roast whole beets
- You can also learn how to cook chickpeas from dried beans.
- If you'd prefer you can roast whole beets instead.
- How to Prep-Ahead: You can either roast the beets a day or two early, or make the entire recipe the day before enjoying.
- How to Store: Hummus will last for up to 1 week when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- How to Freeze: You can also freeze hummus by placing it in a freezer-safe container for up to 6-9 months. Smaller containers work best for snacking! If frozen for a very long time, the hummus will lose its taste and texture. To defrost frozen hummus, place it in the refrigerator for up to 24-48 hours in advance so it can thaw slowly and evenly.
