Hummus, a popular Middle Eastern dish, is typically made from chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and cumin. It has a smooth and creamy texture and a slightly tangy flavor. Peanut butter, on the other hand, is made from roasted peanuts and has a rich, nutty flavor. Combining these two ingredients results in a unique and flavorful dish that is both satisfying and nutritious. This article will guide you through the process of making hummus with peanut butter, providing step-by-step instructions and helpful tips to ensure a successful culinary experience.

HUMMUS WITH PEANUT BUTTER
I know, I know! There are 183 hummus recipes! But none have peanut butter in them. I got this from a nutritionist who's (now grown) children would only eat hummus if she used peanut butter instead of tahini. I like it this way rather than the tahini way. Try it. You'll be pleasantly surprised! I put the olive oil right in the blender instead of drizzling on afterwards. Then I eat it with Kashi TLC crackers right out of the container.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY HUMMUS
This recipe comes from a very nice blog called cupcakesandkalechips.com. Ive modified it a bit to suit my taste even more, though. It is a dessert hummus and tastes sooo good. It gives you all those classic pb&j flavours but is so much better for you. I love it! :)

PEANUT BUTTER-CHOCOLATE HUMMUS
This is my new addiction. I eat it on toast with banana or after dinner like ice cream. It can be served with sliced fruit or with cinnamon pita chips. I often just opt to eat it by the spoonful.

Tips for Making Hummus with Peanut Butter:
- Use smooth peanut butter for a creamier texture. Crunchy peanut butter can also be used, but it will give the hummus a more chunky texture. - If you don't have tahini, you can use an equal amount of sesame seeds. Just toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until they are golden brown and fragrant, then grind them in a food processor until they are a smooth paste. - To make the hummus more flavorful, add a tablespoon or two of lemon juice or lime juice. You can also add a teaspoon or two of ground cumin, coriander, or paprika. - Serve the hummus with pita bread, vegetables, or crackers. It can also be used as a sandwich spread or dip.Conclusion:
Hummus with peanut butter is a delicious and healthy dip that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, give hummus with peanut butter a try! You won't be disappointed.
