Make Miso Paste Hummus Vegetarian for a Healthy Version
This vegetarian miso hummus is a simple way to get extra veggies in your diet. I’m all about making recipes plant-based when I can. Vegetarian cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. By building meals around vegetarian pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make healthier meals for you and your family.
I made a list of my 125 favorite vegan pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my vegetarian recipes here that are on The Herbeevore. These easy and healthy recipes are fantastic meatless meals for your table.
What’s In This Hummus with Miso Recipe?
- Light Sweet Miso Paste – I love this light and sweet miso paste, I keep a few packs in my pantry for recipes when I want to add a little umami flavor in a pinch. Miso is a paste made from lightly fermented soy beans, and is a classic in soups and Asian dishes.
- No Salt Added Chickpeas: the staple of all hummuses! You can use canned chickpeas (I’d highly recommend a low sodium or no salt version), or you can make your own chickpeas from scratch in the Instant Pot.
- Tahini: A fantastic and flavorful spread made from ground sesame seeds. This tahini is fantastic in any dish, we absolutely love this tahini!
- Cumin: also adds a really nice flavor to this dip – cumin has a lightly smokey flavor found in a lot of hummus recipes.
- Red Chili Pepper Flakes: for a little heat! if you don’t like spice, you can absolutely skip them in this recipe.
- Olive Oil: I like to use this delicious Zoe olive oil which has a fantastic flavor and deep color- it’s really inexpensive online here, so I keep a few liters stocked up in my pantry. For the quality of oil you get, it’s an excellent value, I would highly recommend!
How Do I Make This Hummus with Miso?
- In a food processor, add the chickpeas, garlic, miso paste, lemon juice, tahini, and chili flakes. Turn food processor on, and using the opening at the top of the food processor, stream in the olive oil while the hummus blends.
- Pulse on low and increase speed. Blend until hummus is a smooth consistency. Serve in a dish and top with extra olive oil, paprika, and a sprinkle of herbs or sesame seeds.
- Serve with crudité, pita chips, or as a spread on a sandwich or wrap.
What’s the Best Food Processor for Hummus?
I like to keep it simple! We have this fantastic CuisinArt Food Processor that has lasted us years and years, so I have to say I’ve been very happy with it! It gets weekly use, and is great for chopping ingredients for sauces, making hummus like this, and pureeing dips. It’s really basic and inexpensive and gets the job done, I’m pretty happy with our model.

I ended up adding roughly 1/2 a cup of water to this to make it a bit more creamy. The final product isn’t bad and seems to have a smoky taste and overall, it’s not bad. I can’t put my finger on what’s missing, but I feel like this is 1 ingredient away from being being good.
It’s the first time I’ve used Miso in this manner. A bit more about this experience is in the blog link.
