- ¼ teaspoon cumin
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 tablespoons water
- ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
Instructions
- Warm the chickpeas in the microwave for 1 minute, to make the chickpeas easier to blend.

- With the machine running, drizzle the olive oil and water and blend until smooth.
- Add salt to taste and blend until combined.
Notes
If you like your hummus to have a thinner consistency, feel free to add more water until you reach your desired consistency. It tends to thicken in the refrigerator so when enjoying leftovers, add a splash of water and stir until smooth.
