Best Homemade Hummus With Pitta Chips Recipes

TWO KINDS OF PITA CHIPS & HOMEMADE HUMMUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spread the pita chip pieces in one even layer on two baking sheets. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to evenly coat the pita pieces. Sprinkle one pan with salt and one pan evenly with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
• Bake for about 20 minutes, until crunchy and golden brown. Let cool completely on the baking sheets. Store in airtight containers.
• Add the chickpeas to the bowl of your food processor with the garlic. Process until the peas and garlic are finely ground. With the food processor on, drizzle the olive oil in, followed by the water.
• Scrape the bowl as needed to ensure the texture is smooth. Add the za'atar, paprika, cumin, black pepper, and salt, and blend until smooth and combined.

HOMEMADE HUMMUS WITH PITTA CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Slice each pitta in half so it separates into two really thin pieces of bread, then cut into strips or wedges. Lightly grease a shallow baking tray or sheet and arrange the pitta slices on top. Cook in the oven for 10 mins until crisp, then leave to cool. Can be stored in an airtight container for 4-5 days.
• To make the hummus, tip the rinsed chickpeas into a food processor. Add all the remaining ingredients and 3 tbsp cold water and whizz together. Keep adding water, a tbsp or so at a time, until you get a smooth spoonable paste. Tip into a bowl and serve. Can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days.
