Golden Beet & Smoked Paprika Hummus
- 1/2 pound golden beets, quartered
- 2-4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 15 ounces can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, plus more for garnish
- 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
- juice from 1 lemon
- dill for garnish
- Preheat oven to 400.
- Place beets on a baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Bake for 35-45 minutes, until beets are tender. Let cool completely.
- In a food processor, combine chickpeas, tahini, garlic, salt, smoked paprika, chili flakes, lemon juice, and beets. Puree until smooth. Add in 1 tablespoon of olive oil at a time until right consistency is reached. If hummus is still too thick, you can add a little water to thin it out.
- Transfer to bowl and top with dill.
