I have been working on a lot of pumpkin recipes lately… and I love them all! It is really hard for me to chose one that I love the most but this Pumpkin Hummus might take the cake. It is so delightful. Because we use a Pumpkin Puree it is not overtly pumpkin-y like when you use pumpkin spice. This Pumpkin hummus is a fantastic tailgating app, fall dip, and festive entertaining addition to any party this fall!
I’m going to give you a pro tip on how to make it without homemaking your hummus base, but let me tell you there is nothing better then making your own hummus – you can really control the lemon and garlic and salt better and it’s amazing.

BUT! If you are short on time…. don’t make your pumpkin hummus.

Want to know a pumpkin hummus secret?
Instead of making the hummus yourself.. purchase classic hummus at your grocery store. Add 1 can of pumpkin puree and all of your seasonings (BBQ Seasoning, Paprika, Salt, and cinnamon). I also like to add 2 tbsp of brown sugar just to offset the squashy flavor of the pumpkin and compliment the cinnamon.
Done. In. Minutes!!
So do me a favor. When you love this recipe as much as I do, will you post about it? Will you tag me on Instagram or Facebook? Will you share this post with your friends? I hope you do!
