White Bean Hummus

You may have noticed that I’m a huge fan of hummus, and that’s why I always try to combine it with new ingredients. In this recipe, I added organic white beans with mediterranean spices to create a smooth and creamy vegan hummus. Did you know that white beans offer a generous quantity of magnesium, which can help your body handle stress better. They are also packed with slow digesting carbohydrates and have a low glycemic index, which is good for your blood sugar level.

You need the following ingredients:

• 360 g / 1 1/2 cups organic chickpeas with liquid
• 240 g / 1 cup organic white beans drained
• 2 tbsp sesame seeds
• 1 tbsp tahini paste
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp paprika powder
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 lime

Drain the white beans, peel the garlic and lime, and measure all other ingredients.

Pour all your ingredients into a high-powered blender. If you don’t have one, you can also use your hand-blender. Blend until everything is well mixed and you end up with a smooth and creamy texture.

Serve your White Bean Hummus in a nice serving dish alongside some crackers. For example, they go very well with my Nutty Crackers or Flaxseed Sesame Crackers.

Enjoy, Melanie…
