Hummus Dippers
Maybe you knew that hummus is a dip, but did you know it can also be dipped?
Ingredients
Hummus Ingredients
- 1 (15.5-ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
- 4 tablespoons tahini
- ¾ cup lemon juice
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Dipper Ingredients
1 recipe Hummus
2 eggs, lightly beaten
¾ cup bread crumbs (try whole wheat)
¼ cup Parmesan cheese
Large pinch of salt
Directions
To prepare hummus, puree peas in blender or food processor. Add remaining ingredients; blend until thick and smooth.
To prepare dippers, preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly beat the eggs in a bowl. In separate bowl, mix bread crumbs, Parmesan and salt together. Set up hummus, beaten eggs and bread crumb mixture into an assembly line. Roll the hummus into 1-inch portions or balls and dip into eggs, then bread crumb mixture. Set breaded hummus on greased baking sheet 1 inch apart. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes and then turn on broil setting and brown dippers two to five minutes. Serve warm with favorite dipping sauce.
