This 3 ingredient sun-dried tomato hummus is perfect for when you need something quick flavourful, and filling.
Preparing 3-Ingredient Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus
Preparing this hummus is just a matter of adding all of the ingredients to the blender. I put the oil and tomatoes in first and then add the chickpeas and salt on top. I find my blender works a bit better like this.
Then you just blend until the hummus is your desired creaminess.
You can serve it with a little extra oil drizzled on top, and garnish it with some basil if you like.
This hummus is perfect for drop-in visitors, hungry kids, or even just a midnight snack
Tips: Plant-based snacking
Plant-based snacking isn't just limited to fruits, vegetables, and nuts. Many common dips and spreads are naturally plant-based: think salsa, guacamole, hummus and nut butters, for example.
If you want to vegan-ize a dip made with mayonnaise, try our vegan mayo, it's quick and inexpensive. Or check out the commercially available options at the grocery market.
Keeping some of our DIY Mother Mix on hand will help you whip up creamy dips in no time, like this easy vegan queso or our Spinach Dip.
Recipe Card
3 Ingredient Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chickpeas {See recipe note}
- 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes
- 1/3 cup oil from jar of sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon smoked sea salt {or sub table salt to taste}
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil, minced {optional, for topping}
Instructions
- Add the oil and tomatoes to the blender and then the chickpeas and salt. Blend until smooth.
- Put in serving vessel and optionally top with minced basil and a little extra sun-dried tomato oil or olive oil. Serve with your favourite dippers, some hearty bread, mini pitas, crunchy veggies like celery or carrots, or smear it on a toasted bagel.
Notes
- If you are using canned chickpeas, save the liquid - it's called aquafaba and it's a fabulous vegan replacement for eggs.
- If you don't have 1/3rd cup of sun-dried tomato oil left in the jar, top it up with olive oil.
