This Chipotle Caramelized Onion Hummus recipe is seriously good. No joking around here! It’s got just the right blend of spice too.
It was about time I made a hummus recipe. I bought some chipotle powder online from iherb last month, and I had a whole box of onions I bought from our local fruit shop. I decided to caramelize some of them. It made so much! (way more than the amount needed for this recipe – so look out for some other recipes using caramelized onions in the future!)
You could totally use store bought caramelized onions – but making your own tastes way better I reckon!
This is a great recipe to take to your next picnic, pot-luck or vegan BBQ! It’s also great for happy hour! Do you know what? This hummus would pair perfectly with the Black Midnight Bagels we made the other day!
Know someone who loves hummus!? (who doesn’t! 😜) Please share this Chipotle Caramelized Onion Hummus recipe with them!!
