A fun spin on the beanless hummus repertoire, this artichoke hummus is a little different, but exceedingly delicious.
DRAIN: Carefully drain the artichoke hearts, pressing down on them firmly to get rid of as much liquid as possible – this will stop the hummus from being watery instead of creamy. Smash the garlic clove with the back of a knife and peel off & discard the skin.
CHOP: Add the drained artichoke hearts and peeled garlic to a mini food processor or similar and pulse until they are roughly chopped. Scrape down the sides.
BLEND: Add the avocado oil and lemon juice, then process until the hummus is thoroughly combined and creamy. This is a perfect dip as is, but you can drizzle it with a little extra virgin olive oil just before serving if you like.
Preservative Free Bottled Lemon Juice
Buy Now →If you want to purchase artichoke hearts without corn derived citric acid as a preservative, Trader Joe’s has bags of citric acid free frozen artichoke hearts. You will want to swap in about 8.5 oz / 140 g thawed, drained frozen artichoke hearts in place of the canned variety.
Choose a neutral tasting oil that won’t overpower the flavor of the artichokes. A light olive oil would be great, whereas an extra virgin olive oil would be too strong a flavor profile.
