This Sesame Free White Bean Hummus is a creamy and garlicky dip that’s easy to make with just 6 ingredients. Perfect for a healthy snack, a healthy salad dressing base, or just to eat it with a spoon! Plus, it’s free from the top 8 allergens.

Nut Free, Peanut Free, Dairy Free, Gluten Free, Grain Free

If I had to choose one food that I wish I could eat despite my food allergies, it would be hummus.

OK, maybe peanut butter…or almond butter…or anything store bought that may be “made in a factory that also produces nuts…”

OK, clearly I cannot make up my mind!

It’s not that I feel like I miss out on these things, because largely, I’ve found substitutes that satisfy my cravings and taste preferences, be it sunflower seed butter or my version of nutella (chocolate sunflower seed butter), or even chocolate sunflower seed butter cups, snack bars and now HUMMUS, but I’m talking about simplicity. Sometimes it’s just THAT much easier to go to the store and buy whatever it is that I want without thinking twice.

Those of us with food allergies don’t have that freedom.

So when my dad created a sesame free white bean hummus that’s made without tahini, everyone (including family and friends with zero food allergies!) absolutely loved it…and I was all in! Thanks Dad!

What is hummus?

Hummus is such a versatile food because it’s chock full of good-for-you fiber and plant based protein, while being totally delicious at the same time! All the creaminess is so satisfying, making it a great appetizer, filling you up with the good stuff before your meal.

Or make it your meal! I’ve been teasing this humm-believable hummus non-stop on Insta.

So are you having an election returns viewing party?! This fun new homemade hummus needs to make an appearance while you’re hopefully not absolutely FREAKING out at the same time ((like yours truly))!

And let’s talk about leftovers! If your guests don’t finish alll the homemade sesame free white bean hummus, you can spread it on your sweet tater toast for brekkie, slab it on a sammie for lunch, dip veggies and ((whole grain)) crackers in it for a snack, and add it to your power bowl for dinner. Now that’s a practical food worthy of your time to make it. And did I mention it takes only 10 minutes to make?!
