    Who loves hummus everything? I do, I do! So, why not tap into the flavors of fall with this tasty Savory Pumpkin Hummus recipe? It's beyond easy to make -- NO cooking required!

    A small dipping bowl filled with pumpkin hummus topped with pumpkin seeds served on top of a green platter with rice crackers on the side and a black and white checkered napkin on the side.

    Only 10 minutes to a quick appetizer dip that's perfect for holiday entertaining. Smooth and creamy, this Savory Pumpkin Hummus is the perfect appetizer for holiday entertaining!

    Ingredients for making pumpkin hummus placed on a marble surface including chickpeas in a glass bowl, pureed pumpkin in a glass bowl, tahina paste in a small measuring cup and raw pumpkin seeds and garlic cloves.

    Seriously folks, I made this using a cup of organic pumpkin purée (I like the Trader Joe's brand), a can of chickpeas, some tahina paste, garlic, a dash of honey, and sriracha seasoning for a little kick. Throw it all into a food processor and pulse until smooth.

    Pulse all of the ingredients together in your food processor and this smooth and creamy hummus dip will be the hit of the party!
