Roasted Vegetable Hummus Recipe

A healthy and vibrant roasted vegetable hummus is a delicious alternative to chickpea hummus. Made with cauliflower, sweet potato, and roasted red bell peppers, this hummus recipe is easy to make and so versatile. Serve it as an appetizer, side dish, or dipping sauce, or even use it as a sauce for pizza.

How to make roasted peppers

You can find roasted peppers in stores. They come with peels and seeds removed, so you can use them straight from the jar.

It’s actually very easy to make roasted peppers at home.

You can roast them on an open flame, in the oven, or on a grill, whatever is easier. For most of us, roasting peppers in the oven is a less messy and the most accessible method.

Roast the peppers at 400F until the skins blisters on almost the entire surface. Place the peppers in a large bow, generously sprinkle with salt, and cover for about 10-15 minutes.

Remove the skin and the seeds, and now they are ready to use to make the hummus.

How to make roasted vegetable hummus

TO ROAST THE VEGGIES:

• Preheat the oven to 400F.
• Add the veggies to a baking tray: cauliflower in small florets, whole, peeled garlic cloves, red onion wedges; sprinkle with salt and pepper, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, and add more of your favorite herbs (I like to use herbs de Provence, rosemary, or oregano).
• Mix well to get everything coated and roast for about 30 minutes, stirring after 15 minutes.
• You can put one small sweet potato at the same time to bake with the veggies, or you can make more in advance as part of your meal prep.

BLEND THE INGREDIENTS:

• Add 1/2 cup of roasted sweet bell pepper in a blender, the rest of the ingredients, saving some on the side for garnishing. Blend well until creamy and smooth. Taste and add more seasoning if you like.

Optional: You can sprinkle the hummus with our Za’atar Seasoning Blend.

How to serve roasted vegetable hummus

Use it as a dipping sauce with raw vegetable sticks or compliant crackers such as these Keto Flaxseed Crackers with Zaatar Spices (Vegan). I also love to spread it on a compliant pizza crust or cassava tortilla, add a fried egg on top, some more veggies, and a green sauce or pesto, and have it for brunch.
