Pumpkin hummus is a flavorful dip that blends traditional hummus ingredients—chickpeas, tahini, garlic, and lemon juice—with pumpkin purée for added richness and a touch of sweetness. Gordon Ramsay’s version incorporates warm spices like cumin and paprika to enhance depth and seasonal warmth.
1 cup canned or roasted pumpkin purée
1½ cups cooked chickpeas (or 1 can, drained and rinsed)
2 tablespoons tahini
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
2–3 tablespoons cold water, to adjust consistency
Toasted pumpkin seeds
Drizzle of olive oil
Paprika or chili flakes
Fresh parsley
Combine main ingredients: In a food processor, add chickpeas, pumpkin purée, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Blend until smooth: Process for 1–2 minutes until well combined. Scrape down the sides as needed.
Adjust consistency: While blending, add cold water a tablespoon at a time until the hummus reaches your desired smoothness.
Taste and adjust: Add more lemon juice or salt to balance the flavor if necessary.
Plate and garnish: Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and top with your choice of seeds, herbs, or spices.
Serve chilled or at room temperature: Best enjoyed with warm pita, crackers, or fresh veggies.
