This dill pickle hummus is a pickle lover's dream come true! It's rich, creamy, and can be made in minutes with just a handful of ingredients. Slather it on sandwiches, scoop it in pita bread, or use it to dip veggies!
- 1 (15.5 ounce/439 gram) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- ½ cup finely chopped dill pickles, plus more for garnish, if desired
- ¼ cup tahini
- ¼ cup fresh dill, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, or more if desired
- ¼ cup dill pickle juice, or as needed
- Salt and pepper, to taste
-
Place the chickpeas, dill pickles, tahini, dill, olive oil, and garlic into a blender or the bowl of a food processor fitted with an s-blade.
-
Blend the ingredients, stopping to scrape down the sides of the pitcher or bowl as needed. The mixture will be thick.
-
Once you've achieved a relatively smooth consistency, begin drizzling in the pickle juice, while the machine runs. Add as much juice as you need to achieve your desired consistency.
-
Taste-test the hummus and season it with salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
-
Serve.
