Equipment

  • food processor or blender

Ingredients
  

  • 15 ounce chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil plus more for drizzling on top
  • ¼ cup lemon juice, fresh squeezed
  • ¼ cup tahini
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • teaspoons ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • tablespoons everything but the bagel seasoning
  • teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoons mesquite or hickory liquid smoke
  • 2 tablespoons ice cold water

Instructions
 

  • Drain chickpeas. Rinse with hot water. Remove and discard skins.
  • Place chickpeas in food processor. Pulse until crumbly.
  • Pulse in 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice and tahini. Process on high speed until smooth.
  • Add garlic (using garlic press and finely chopped). Add salt, cumin, smoked paprika, everything but the bagel seasoning, cayenne pepper and liquid smoke. Process on high until completely blended.
  • With the food processor running on high speed, pour in 2 tablespoons ice cold water. If the hummus isn't as thin as you like at this point, process in a little more olive oil until it is the texture you want. Taste test. Add additional seasonings to your liking.
  • Scrape hummus into a pie plate, tart pan, or bowl. Swirl the top and drizzle olive oil into the crevices. Sprinkle with additional bagel seasoning and paprika if desired. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate up to 5 days. Serve with vegetables, pita chips, crostini, pita bread, crackers, almonds, and olives.
