• 1/4 c all natural peanut butter
• 1/2 c pumpkin puree

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

procedure

1. Peel the outer skin from the chickpeas.
2. Combine all ingredients in a food processor, and process until smooth.

Makes about 15 1-ounce servings. Store tightly covered in refrigerator for up to one week.

review: I like it but the peanut flavor is quite strong. This may be due to chunky peanut butter. I think the extra chunks of peanuts made the flavor more intense. I think smooth peanut butter would be a change. I was hoping for a more pumpkin/ tradition hummus blend so next time I'll bump up the pumpkin. This is definitely something to work on. Definitely delicious, but not what I was expecting!
