Instructions
Start by draining the chickpeas. Reserve some of the liquid to add if needed.
To a food processor add all of the ingredients (chickpeas, pumpkin puree, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, allspice, and cayenne.
Turn on the food processor and blend to combine all of the ingredients. If the hummus looks dry, add some of the chickpea liquid (or regular water) 1 tablespoon at a time to adjust until it reaches the desired consistency.
Also, stop the food processor at least once to scrape down the sides with a spatula to ensure everything gets evenly incorporated.
When everything is smoothly incorporated, taste the hummus and add more salt, pepper, cayenne, or lemon juice as needed.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with toasted pumpkin seeds, za'atar, or smoked paprika powder. Serve with vegetables, pita, crackers etc.
