Instructions

Preheat oven to 425F.
Add the cauliflower to a microwave safe bowl, place a plate over the top and cook in the microwave for 7 minutes.
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top. Sprinkle with smoked paprika, cumin, salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Pour onto a baking sheet pan lined with parchment paper or a Silpat and bake for 10 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender and golden.
While the cauliflower is still warm, add to the bowl of a food processor along with the remaining ingredients. Pulse until everything is thoroughly combined and smooth. Add a little more olive oil if the mixture is too thick.
Serve with a drizzle of olive oil and sprinkling of smoked paprika over the top. Enjoy with fresh cut celery, cucumber, zucchini sticks, carrots, pork rinds or seasoned tortilla chips!

Notes

If you don't like a strong garlic flavor, use only 2 small cloves of garlic. I like garlic flavor in my hummus, so I used 3 cloves. If you're not sure, start with 2 cloves then give it a taste and always add another clove if you want.
