What Is Beet Hummus?
Beet hummus starts with the classic hummus recipe of chickpeas, tahini, garlic, and lemon. Blend in roasted beets and it becomes intensely vibrant and irresistible to your eyes and your tastebuds. The spices add depth and flavor that make this hummus the perfect complement to any veggie platter, sandwich, or charcuterie board. Homemade hummus is so easy to make with simple ingredients. It’s light and fluffy, but rich and creamy all in one bowl. Use it as a spread, dip, or enjoy it by the spoonful. And if you’re a hummus lover, you’ll have to try traditional hummus, avocado hummus, or this chocolate hummus next!

Let’s Make Hummus
This beet hummus recipe comes together so fast in the food processor or blender. I love to use leftover roasted beets from the day before to make a batch of this hummus. Make it a quick snack, light lunch, or a fun dip to serve at your next party.
Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400° Fahrenheit.Wash and Remove Stems: Wash the whole beets, dry them, and cut off the stems.Prepare the Pan: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drizzle With Olive Oil: Drizzle the beets with olive oil and place them in the preheated oven.Cook: Roast for 25-30 minutes or until very fork tender. Cooking time will depend on the size of your beets.
In the Refrigerator: It is best to store leftover beet hummus in an airtight container for 5 to 7 days in the refrigerator. Hummus will thicken as it chills, so stir in 1-2 tablespoons of cold water. It will add moisture and make it nice and creamy again.
