Notes
Pumpkin Puree is different from Pumpkin Pie Filling. DO NOT use pumpkin pie filling in this recipe otherwise, the hummus will turn out sweet.Use ice-cold water while blending the hummus for a creamier and dense texture. It also prevents the hummus from turning darker in color while blending.Scrape the sides of the blender a few times while blending.Make this hummus a day prior to serving for the best flavor.This recipe can be easily halved or doubled.
