Instructions
- Roast carrots: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the carrots and garlic cloves on a baking sheet and toss with the oil. Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, until tender. Let cool to the touch, then remove the peel from the garlic.
- Blend hummus: Add the chickpeas, chickpea liquid, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, ginger, coriander, salt, carrots, and peeled garlic to a high-powered blender and secure the lid. Turn the blender on high for 30 seconds (or more for a creamier texture) and use the tamper to push the hummus into the blades. Add more chickpea liquid (aquafaba), if desired, for a softer hummus.
- Serve: Add the hummus to a small serving bowl and garnish with olive oil, chopped cilantro and chopped pumpkin seeds.

Notes
- A small quarter baking sheet is perfect for roasting smaller quantities like these carrots. I use my quarter baking sheet all the time!
- You can also make tahini yourself (rather than buying in the store). Just follow my tahini recipe.
- The Vitamix blender I use is the Vitamix Ascent 3500 - and I love it!
- 1 cup of dried chickpeas = 3 cups of soaked and cooked chickpeas = approx 30 ounces canned chickpeas
