Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Recipe (with Video)

Preparation of Garlic and Bell Pepper
1. Preheat your oven to 395 degrees F.
2. Cut the top off a garlic head and rub it with olive oil.
3. Place both the garlic head and the bell pepper on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven for about 25 minutes until the skin of the bell pepper has blackened.
4. Once roasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool.
Preparation of Hummus
1. Next, remove the skin from the bell pepper and squeeze the garlic out of its skin.
2. In a food processor, combine the roasted bell pepper and garlic with boiled chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, aquafaba, cumin, paprika powder, and salt.
3. Gradually stream in olive oil.
4. Process the mixture for 1-2 minutes until it reaches a smooth consistency.
Adjusting the Consistency and Serving
1. If you find that the hummus is too liquidy, add more tahini.
2. If it's too firm, add a bit of water.
3. Once you have reached your desired consistency, transfer the hummus to a bowl and enjoy with veggies and/or bread.
