Fat-Free Hummus

The nutritional yeast in this hummus is a GAME CHANGER! No oil or extra fat required! It's truly luscious!

1 1/2 cups of cooked chickpeas (I made mine in the Instant Pot from dry beans)
1 clove of garlic
1 1/2 T fresh lemon juice
1/4 t. cumin powder
2 dashes of cayenne pepper
1 t.. nutritional yeast flakes
1/4-1/2 t. salt (or none if you're doing SOS-free)
water or aquafaba (liquid from the chickpeas) to thin and blend smooth

Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender for quite a while until very smooth and creamy.

  1. Thanks for this recipe! Do you mostly just use it on veggies or is there a FOK friendly option you could also did into it?

    1. Hi Danielle! Thanks for stopping by my website. I usually eat hummus with raw veggies, or sometimes, I eat them with baked pita chips. Here's how I make them:
