This beet hummus is a simple, bright, and slightly sweet recipe that comes together in minutes with a blender or food processor. It makes a creamy, nutritious snack or spread that doubles as a colorful dip for veggies, pita, or crackers.
1 Add the cooked beet, chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, paprika, cumin, and ice cubes into a food processor or blender.
2 Blend on high until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed.
3 Taste and adjust: For more tang: add a little extra lemon juice. For creaminess: add a splash more olive oil or tahini. For a softer flavor (especially for toddlers): roast the garlic before blending or reduce to 1 clove.
7 Transfer to a bowl or platter and serve with pita, crackers, cucumber sticks, or carrots.
