Making your own hummus at home is so easy! You only need a few staple ingredients and you can make this with or without tahini.

What Type of Chickpeas to Use

I use a 15 ounce can of garbanzo beans. Drain them first, this is important. The terms chickpeas and garbanzo beans are used interchangeably. They mean the same thing.

Spices and Seasoning

I’m using Tony Chachere’s seasoning in this recipe. I have been a fan of their store-bought seasoning for YEARS. I use it in my Instant Pot Gumbo, Instant Pot Cabbage, Instant Pot Collard Greens, and other recipes.

It has always been my go-to Creole seasoning because it is packed with flavor. I’m so excited that I recently noticed they have lite and no salt versions now!

I used their lite creole seasoning in this recipe. You can use original creole seasoning if you wish. The lite blend has 1/3 less sodium than the original.

How to Make Pumpkin Hummus

1. Add pureed pumpkin, chickpeas, lite creole seasoning, honey, garlic powder, and olive oil to a blender or food processer.
2. Blend until combined.

What to Eat and Serve With It

• Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread
• Homemade Southern Cornbread
• Sliced bread (French, sourdough, etc.)
• Crackers
• Chips
• Fresh Fruit
• Fresh Vegetables (Celery, Carrots, Broccoli, etc)

How to Make it Spicy

Add a teaspoon or more of red cayenne pepper if you’re looking for a kick. You can also add a dose of chili powder or jalapeno peppers.

How to Make it Sweet

Add pumpkin pie spice if you want a combination of sweet and savory! You can also add additional honey.

How to Store It

You can store it in the fridge tightly sealed for up to 4 days.

Freezer Tips

Freeze the hummus in an airtight container. It will expand a little bit, so don’t fill the container up completely. It will freeze up to 4 months. Thaw it overnight in the refrigerator when ready to use.
