Notes

  • We used cannellini beans because it's what we had in the cupboard, but you can use chickpeas to keep it a more traditional hummus.
  • You can use this recipe to make other kinds of vegetable hummus too, like beetroot or courgette.
  • Feel free to experiment with flavours in this hummus - you could give it a Mexican twist by using Mexican seasoning.
  • Serve the hummus with vegetable sticks and pita bread.
  • You will need to use a high powered blender for the best results as it will get the carrot hummus nice and creamy.
  • To make the hummus even lighter, add a couple of tablespoons of the water drained from the beans.
