I make and eat a lot of hummus, yet I slack at giving you hummus recipes! Have no fear, I have a good one for you today. This is my latest hummus recipe and I’ve been enjoying the huge batch I made the last 2 weeks. It’s simple Fall perfection that satisfies the savory pumpkin craving. If I had the choice between a sweet pumpkin dish and a savory one, I think I would go savory! I just love the creamy, rich, undertoned taste of pumpkin when highlighted in a savory recipe.

I don’t think people highlight or appreciate it’s wonderful savory qualities enough. Maybe that’s why I love it so much. The versatility from sweet to savory and everything in between. Just like hummus! Sweet, savory, whatever. I just love foods and ingredients that do that that flavor profile capability. It makes the possibilities endless and the ingredient or food timeless. So opening that can of pumpkin and using it to make this pumpkin pie snack bites as well as this hummus, all from one can, sounds pretty good to me.

This is also a really nifty time of year to start doling out the hummus recipes. Tons of gatherings, parties, and tailgating. ‘Tis the season for good healthy snacking! I mean, have you ever been to some type of get together where there was no dip or hummus? I think not. People like to mingle while snacking. Snacking on something crunchy. Mingling, snacking, and dipping or spreading! Lucky for you, those chips, pretzels, or raw veggies can do some of their own mingling in some seasonal pumpkin hummus! And, get this, it’s healthy, allergy-free, and fat-free! So dip, spread, and scoop away my snacking friends!

    I’m with you – definitely like those foods that are so versatile and work well, whether sweet or savory. I do tend towards savory though, and pumpkin’s such a perfect (and healthy) food this time of year. 🙂

    I love making my own hummus because I’m not a fan of Tahini- but I rarely venture away from a classic hummus recipe. I love the sound of yours and will definitely have to try it- what was your favorite way to eat it? I actually love to spread hummus on a sandwich!

    • Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says

      What!! I could eat (and do) eat tahini by the spoonful, I just never add it to my own hummus 😛
      That’s the only way I use hummus! For my lunch sammies!

    What a perfect season for pumpkin hummus! This sounds really yummy and I am all about pumpkin everything these days (obviously!). I love what you said & I agree, always time for healthy snacking!

    Okay, so I’ve already commented on this delicious post once but I am happy to be back and say that I’ve chosen this savory pumpkin hummus as my feature for the Thank Goodness It’s Thursday link party.

    I made this (but reduced the sage and thyme to 1/4 tsp because I was giving it to my 3 year old and you know what? WINNER! It definitely made people look twice – my neighbor loves it now, too!

    I’m so intrigued! I make hummus weekly, and I like to mix up the flavours each time, but I never would have thought to add pumpkin to it. Definitely will be trying it out! This would also be great for those times I realize I have no tahini, haha.

      I always love making a new floavor every time too and pumpkin was essential to the start of the season!

    Pumpkin: definitely savory!!!
    Party dip: hummus of course! Or guacamole 😉

    I love this recipe, Rebecca, pumpkin hummus is one of my all time favourites, I am gonna give it a try with your spice combinations too!

    I cannot choose between sweet and savory with pumpkin – it’s all so good. I basically just need to resign myself to being orange.

    Great idea with the hummus! I’d dip some carrots in it just in case it wasn’t enough orange. 😉

    • Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says

      Orange foods are kinda awesome…like orange means sweet or savory. Think sweet potatoes, pumpkin, carrots….it’s all good either way!
      I’m with you there!!! Orange on orange!

    Delish! I’d personally go with sweet over savory any day but this hummus might just convert me 🙂 I love the creaminess and specific flavor of pumpkins, I could eat them by the pound in all kinds of dishes 🙂 Thanks for the recipe! <3

    Eating pumpkin all day, every day and adding it to everything? Oh yes! Okay, I’ll admit I don’t eat it ALL day but that’s just because the supply over here is limited [to a very few months] and I’m not a real fan of sweet pumpkin, either. We don’t grow up eating it this way over here and I’ll admit just the thought of pumpkin pie … no. Yes to savoury or undecided [read: plain steamed] when kabocha is involved. Pumpkin hummus combining two of my favourite foods – well, pumpkin and chickpeas, obviously – is right up my alley. I’ve actually been meaning to make it myself but was too lazy too prepare pumpkin puree first 😉 .

      Hahahahaha! I loved your comment 😉
      I think there is way more untapped potential when you keep it savory. People never think about it, but it can really make a dish spectacular, creamy, and keep you guessing!

    Well, you know I’m a sweets kinda girl, but when it comes to pumpkin I love it both ways — probably because it makes my savory sweet haha 🙂

    Well, this looks delicious, Rebecca. Never tried a pumpkin hummus yet, but gonna have to change that soon 😉

    Savory or sweet pumpkin? Now that’s a hard question to answer because there are so many ways to love pumpkin. Pumpkin pie, of course. Pumpkin scones, muffins, breads–both sweet and savory. But soups too. Your pumpkin hummus recipe is totally new to me. Have to give that a try. I’m thinking it might work just as well with butternut squash too. What do you think?

    This looks really yummy! I bought pumpkin hummus in the store yesterday.. it had added sugar (which I normally stay away from) but it was one of the last ingredients so I gave it a try.. definitely still too sweet for me! Totally trying this instead 🙂

    Oh my goodness, how delicious! Out of all the flavour hummus’ Ive ever tried Ive never tried pumpkin – what a beautiful and fresh take on this magnificent dip!

    Say what? My girls and I love sweet potato hummus but I have never made pumpkin hummus!!! I would totally swap you a jar of my Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter for this hummus! 😉

    As soon as I saw this Pumpkin Hummus on FB today, I loved it! What a wonderful idea to mix the pumpkin & chickpeas into a neat party dip! I haven’t had anything with pumpkin yet this season, whaat?! I know 😀 We don’t have pumpkin puree here (so mean!), so I’ve used pumpkin only in savory dishes yet. But after seeing so many great sweet pumpkin recipes on pinterest, I’m really motivated to try some pumpkin cookies or cake or muffins or something like that 🙂 My favorite party dip (besides hummus) is guacamole. I could eat that stuff all day long, especially when served with homemade crackers 🙂

      Girl! Get you pumpkin-game going!!! I wish I could send you tons of cans of Libby’s! Hahaha!
      I think we should make some avocado pumpkin hummus 😉
