    White bean pumpkin hummus is a light and savory dip that's perfect for fall. Serve it with crackers or toasted bread rounds as an easy appetizer or snack.

    The Hubs was the person who first mentioned white bean hummus to me. He heard the recipe on the radio a couple of months ago and thought it sounded pretty decent. I love chickpeas and traditional hummus, so I was the one who was initially skeptical.

    But the more I thought about it, the more appealing the idea seemed, especially when I thought about making it a fall recipe by adding some pureed pumpkin. My kids love dips, and since pumpkin is loaded with nutrients, I thought it would make a wonderfully tasty snack.  

    This doesn't quite have the same texture as traditional hummus. In fact, it's a little bit closer to a light and fluffy pumpkin dip, although it's savory instead of sweet. But it still tastes incredible, and once you start dipping, it's hard to stop!

    dip toasted bread into pumpkin hummus


    I picked up some toasted bread rounds at the store the other day, and they are ideal for scooping up hearty dips like this one. My little guy even made some mini sandwiches by spreading some pumpkin dip between two pieces of the toasted mini bread slices.

      I am SO intrigued by this pumpkin hummus! I would've never thought to add pumpkin to it, and I bet it's delightful and super different! Pinned and cannot wait to give it a shot.
