Have you ever had dessert hummus?

If not, you’re definitely missing out.

This pumpkin hummus recipe is a dessert hummus that made with cooked chickpeas, cashew butter, pureed pumpkin and maple syrup, and is so simple to make with a food processor.

Dip some apples or graham crackers in for a delicious fall flavored snack or dessert.

Easy Homemade Hummus

Homemade hummus really couldn’t be easier with a food processor. It’s ready in under 10 minutes and cheaper than store bought!

And this Pumpkin Pie Hummus in particular is a great snack or side to bring to family gatherings. Drizzle the top with maple strip for some added sweetness and burst of flavor.

What you need for dessert hummus

  • canned chickpeas – chickpeas (also known as garbanzo beans) are the base of any hummus! If you’re feeling adventurous you can save the aquafaba to make a vegan whipped cream to top it with.
  • pumpkin puree – what’s pumpkin hummus without canned pumpkin?
  • cashew butter – you can use homemade or store bought, but this makes it a creamy delicious dip.
  • maple syrup – adding a little sweet and fall flavor
  • vanilla extract – always a good idea
  • pumpkin pie spice – this is where all that fall flavor comes

For Dipping

Dessert hummus is made for dipping. Really, you can dip anything in and it would be delicious, but here are a few favorites:

  • apple slices – it’s the perfect fall combo!
  • crunchy cookies – like gingersnaps or pecan sandies
  • pretzels – a sweet and salty crunch
  • graham crackers
  • cinnamon sugar pita chips
  • strawberries
  • dark chocolate

How to Make Pumpkin Pie Hummus

Place all ingredients into a food processor or blender, then pulse or blend until smooth.

You can do a little taste test to see if you want to add a little more spice or extra sweetness to get your desired flavor.

Make Ahead

Once your pumpkin hummus is smooth, transfer it to a bowl for serving or a storage container.

It can be made ahead of time for a gathering or at the beginning of the week, then covered tightly and store in the refrigerator – best enjoyed within three or four days.

Serve it with:

Your favorite dipping selections like apples, graham crackers, and all the other ideas above!

    I made this and added extra maple syrup, pumpkin, and cashew butter to balance out the chickpea taste.
