A staple in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, chickpeas are nutrition powerhouses with a nutty taste and buttery texture. Canned chickpeas are perfectly fine for hummus\u2014some might say even better than dried\u2014but if you prefer using chickpeas you cooked yourself, feel free to use them here. For any leftover beans, try one of our favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/chickpea-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/chickpea-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">chickpea recipes<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/easy-chickpea-snacks\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/easy-chickpea-snacks\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">easy chickpea snacks<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Canned pumpkin<\/strong>: Unsweetened canned pumpkin (no pumpkin pie filling, please!) has a creamy and velvety texture, and it adds a subtle sweetness and pumpkin flavor to this hummus. It also turns the hummus a gorgeous orange hue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tahini<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-tahini\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-tahini\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">What is tahini<\/a>? A staple in Middle Eastern cuisine, the popular condiment is made by toasting sesame seeds and then emulsifying them with oil to create a thick, creamy seed butter similar in texture to peanut or almond butter. It has an earthy, nutty, savory, slightly bitter taste. It adds flavor and creaminess to hummus.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Extra flavorings<\/strong>: Like most hummus, you&#8217;ll need extra ingredients to really give the dip some pop. For pumpkin hummus, a bit of orange juice, sesame oil and cumin do the trick.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Process the ingredients<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1945945\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Creamy-Pumpkin-Hummus_FT23_242971_ST_1220_1-2-SSedit.gif?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Creamy Pumpkin Hummus Ft23 242971 St 1220 1 2 Ssedit\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In a food processor, combine the drained chickpeas, canned pumpkin, tahini, olive oil or pumpkin seed oil, orange juice, sesame oil, cumin, garlic and salt. Cover and process until smooth, stopping and scraping the sides as needed.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Garnish and serve<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Once smooth and creamy, transfer the hummus to a serving dish or bowl. Garnish with pumpkin seed oil (if desired), and top with pumpkin seeds and pomegranate seeds. Serve with crispy pita chips and sliced apples and pears.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1945944\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Creamy-Pumpkin-Hummus_FT23_242971_ST_1220_3-SSedit.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Creamy Pumpkin Hummus Ft23 242971 St 1220 3 Ssedit\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Pumpkin Hummus Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use a different squash<\/strong>: You can swap in pureed butternut squash or home-roasted pumpkin for the canned pumpkin.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Top with dried cranberries<\/strong>: If you don&#8217;t have pomegranate seeds, dried cranberries are a nice and sweet alternative. They don&#8217;t have that same fresh pop as a pomegranate seed, but they have a similar sweet and tangy flavor and vibrant color.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garnish with fried sage leaves<\/strong>: Top the pumpkin hummus with fried sage leaves for a pretty, autumnal color and an earthy crunch. To make fried sage leaves, coat the bottom of a skillet with olive oil until shimmering. Place the sage leaves in the skillet in a single layer for just about 30 seconds, until crunchy. Place them on a paper towel-lined plate, and sprinkle with salt.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spice things up<\/strong>: Add smoked paprika or crushed red pepper flakes when blending your hummus. If you&#8217;re still looking for more heat, sprinkle some more pepper flakes atop your hummus when you serve it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Pumpkin Hummus<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Store homemade pumpkin hummus in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Make sure the container is well-sealed so oxygen and outside food odors can&#8217;t get to it.<\/p>\n<h2>Can you freeze hummus?<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Yes, you can freeze hummus. Once your pumpkin hummus is blended, store in a freezer-safe resealable plastic bag or an airtight container for up to three months. Thaw hummus in the refrigerator overnight before serving.<\/p>\n<h2>Pumpkin Hummus Tips<\/h2>\n<h3>What can you use instead of tahini for hummus?<\/h3>\n<p>Instead of tahini, you can use another nut butter for hummus. Try almond, cashew or smooth peanut butter. Or, if you&#8217;re not allergic to sesame, increase the sesame oil by a few extra drops to get that sesame flavor.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make pumpkin hummus without chickpeas?<\/h3>\n<p>You can make pumpkin hummus without chickpeas. If you don&#8217;t like or don&#8217;t have garbanzos, try using cannellini beans instead. They&#8217;re equally mild in flavor and creamy when pureed with other ingredients. Any darker beans would change the color and flavor of the hummus.<\/p>\n<h3>What else can you serve with pumpkin hummus?<\/h3>\n<p>Aside from pita chips and sliced fruit, there are a lot of delicious things to serve with pumpkin hummus. Try dipping pretzel sticks and baby carrots in the hummus, or spread the hummus over roasted cauliflower or cauliflower steaks. Or make pumpkin hummus toast points drizzled with maple syrup and sprinkled with dried cranberries and pepitas.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This perfectly delicious pumpkin
