Ingredients

  • 15 ounces chickpeas canned
  • cup tahini
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon espresso powder optional
  • ¼ cup brown sugar or maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup milk

Instructions

  • Start by draining and rinsing a can of chickpeas.
  • In a food processor, combine the tahini and cocoa powder as well as espresso powder if using. Blend until the mixture reaches a smooth consistency.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.
  • Taste and add a little salt or more sweetener if you feel it needs it.

Notes

You can swap out the chickpeas for black beans to deepen the color and slightly change the flavor.
Use natural peanut butter instead of tahini for a more decadent and less traditional hummus.
In place of the dairy milk, use any milk alternative you prefer, like oat milk.
