Hummus. One of our favorite appetizers/snacks/conduit of veggies getting into our bellies. But, over the past couple of years, there’s been a new hummus boom: dessert hummus.
Of course, we’re thrilled since we can’t get enough of the dark chocolate hummus from Sprouts (which can get pricey when they aren’t on sale) and healthier desserts always make us super happy.
We’ve compiled seven vegan dessert hummus recipes from bloggers that will change the way you think about dessert and chickpeas. So, grab some fruit or crackers, plug in your Vitamix or Nutribullet, and get cracking!
Chocolate Peanut Butter
Shane & Simple’s chocolate peanut butter hummus dessert recipe combines two things we love: chocolate and peanut butter, and adds a healthy chickpea to the mix.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Using magical vanilla almond butter, vegan chocolate chips and more, Kaila from the Healthy Helper has created this yummy (and healthier) version of cookie dough.
Carrot Cake
Also from Healthy Helper, this carrot cake dessert hummus recreates carrot cake into this low-sugar, spiced creamy blend of goodness using carrots and even crushed pineapple.
Cheesecake
Fragrant Vanilla gives her take on vegan dessert hummus with this cheesecake hummus that taps into lemon to give the dessert that cheesecake taste.
Sweet Pumpkin
Why wait until fall to enjoy pumpkin? The sweet pumpkin dessert hummus by V Nutrition will have you making this year-round.
Black Bean Brownie Batter
This recipe from Veggie Fun Kitchen may use the traditional hummus ingredient of tahini, but that’s where the savory ends. Tapping into black beans, this recipe whips up brownie batter … in hummus form.
Snickerdoodle
A Virtual Vegan’s Snickerdoodle dessert hummus is one we’ve had before and literally lick the bowl clean. So, there’s that.
