Everything Bagel Hummus

Ingredients

·   1 cup BD chickpeas

·   1/3 cup BD  shelled raw sunflower seeds

·   2 cloves garlic

·   4 tablespoons BD EVOO ( or another olive oil to boost flavor, i.e. Garlic, Lemon, Shallot)

·   4 tablespoons tahini

·   2 teaspoon BD salt

·   4 Tablespoons BD Everything Bagel Spice

Instructions

Place one cup of dried chickpeas in a crockpot and add in 8 cups of water. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.   Drain over a bowl to reserve the liquid. Set the chickpeas and the reserved liquid aside.

Combine sunflower seeds and garlic in the bowl of a food processor. Process for 30 seconds, or until chopped. Add olive oil, tahini, Everything Bagel Spice, salt, and drained chickpeas. Process for 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add reserved chickpea liquid, 2 tablespoon at a time, through the opening in the funnel and process until the mixture is smooth. The more liquid you add, the thinner the mixture will be.

You may want to add additional oil or Everything Bagel Spice for decoration and added flavor when serving.

You can store this hummus in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
