Ingredients:
1 (15 oz) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
¼ cup thick greek yogurt (Faye 5% recommended for a thick consistency)
1 Tbsp raw sesame seeds (Don’t use dark toasted)
1 bulb garlic, roasted
1 Tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp cumin
½ tsp salt
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Note: To thin for dipping, adjust consistency with more extra virgin olive oil or the liquid drained from canned chickpeas (aquafaba). A thinner Greek yogurt can also help.

Canned Chickpeas Hummus
Homemade hummus is one of those things where the store-bought versions just don’t measure up. And this easy recipe made with essential ingredients and a few twists has become my absolute go-to. Most of the ingredients are pantry staples, but tahini isn’t always something I have on hand. So, I swapped in raw sesame seeds and some thick Greek yogurt, and it turned out surprisingly creamy and nutty. First, drain a can of chickpeas and give them a brief rinse. Then, let them drain really well. Toss the chickpeas into a food processor with all the other ingredients. Because the yogurt adds acidity, you won’t need as much lemon juice. For a real flavor punch, I highly recommend using roasted garlic. And don’t skip the cumin. It’s what gives hummus that authentic familiar flavor we all love. Blend everything together until it’s smooth. I personally prefer a slightly thicker texture for spreading on toast and sandwiches, but you can easily adjust it with a little more olive oil or some of the reserved chickpea liquid to get your perfect consistency. See?

This hummus is nice and thick and ultra creamy—not the thin kind. So it's perfect for spreading on toast, wraps, or in sandwiches. The Fage 5% yogurt gave it that fluffy-creamy thickness I enjoy, and the flavor is amazing. The roasted garlic is mellow and not at all overpowering. For dipping, you could thin it out a bit with some extra virgin olive oil or, if you prefer, chickpea liquid.
I am definitely giving this a try as tahini is not a regular cast character in my pantry. Thanks
Tahini is sooo expensive, I can do this.
Toast the sesame seeds in a pan with olive oil. Even better
Love it! I have everything in my cabinet.
I love hummus! I go the extra step and peel the chick peas. It’s very smooth.
What about red 'bell' pepper style hummum?
I don't want to sound rude but this is not a creamy hummus.
I've also used peanut butter when I don't have tahini. It's lovely!
Love this! Where can I find the recipe?
Fried chickpeas are yummy, i get it on my salad downtown, so i tried it at home and yummy 😋 im sure its not great for ya i deep fried em 😅
I always toast the sesame seeds and then blend them into a paste (essentially tahini) first. Then I add the rest of the ingredients to the food processor to make hummus. You only need to store sesame seeds at home. The price for tahini is ridiculous while sesame seeds are so much cheaper.
