Ingredients

  • 1 cup dry chickpeas rinsed and sorted
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 tsp real salt
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped kalamata olives

Instructions

  • Add chick peas and chicken broth to the inner pot of the Instant Pot.
  • Turn pressure valve to sealing and set manual pressure on high for 40 minutes.
  • Do a natural release when pressure time has finished, letting the rest of the pressure out after 15 minutes.
  • Drain chickpeas, reserving a half cup of chicken broth to thin hummus.
  • Using an immersion blender, blend chickpeas to a creamy consistency. You could also add all ingredients to a food processor.
  • Add in remaining ingredients and blend them together until smooth. Add in a tablespoon at a time of the reserved cooking liquid for a thinner consistency.
  • Chill for an hour prior to serving.

Notes

**You'll need to add a little bit of time to this recipe to account for the Instant Pot reaching pressure, and also releasing pressure.
**If you'd like to add tahini, add 3 TBS Tahini in this recipe.
**If you'd like to make this recipe vegan, swap out the chicken broth for vegetable broth.
