Easy, 6-ingredient chickpea hummus in under 5 minutes!
Hummus has always been a fan-favorite as a healthy snack alternative or appetizer.
Chickpea hummus is the most traditional but it’s still very versatile and you can adjust the taste as you wish!
I love the lemon forward hummus with a hint of sweetness from maple syrup.
You can also add some green with parsley or chives!
This recipe makes 5 small servings which are perfect to take to work with some cut vegetables like carrots and celery or you favorite cracker.
