Using Canned Chickpeas Versus Homemade

While I love the convenience of canned beans, I usually cook dry beans from scratch in my pressure cooker – the texture is better and it’s more affordable.  I use a large 7.5-Quart Instant Pot which is bigger than the standard model so I can batch cook more at a time. 

If you don’t already have one, the Instant Pot works wonders for cooking dried beans quickly, with no soaking required! While canned beans are convenient, they are often loaded with sodium. If you buy canned beans, I always recommend using a no-salt-added variety so you can control the amount of salt in your dish. 

Next time you reach for canned beans, consider investing in a pressure cooker instead! Homemade beans are incredibly cost efficient, and you can add seasonings and spices to the beans while they cook for extra flavor.

What’s In This Roasted Carrot Hummus?

Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

  • Carrots, roasted in an oven for about 30 minutes. I cook them on a sheet pan with a little oil, and that’s all. These carrots are great to throw in the oven if you are baking something else for dinner too… so you have roasted carrots ready anytime you need ’em.
  • 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.
  • Fresh Garlic
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Smoked Paprika: give an additional depth of flavor to this dish.
  • Red Chili Pepper Flakes: for a little heat! I like to add a few shakes to this recipe to give this dish a nice complex depth of flavor.
  • Fresh lemon juice

How To Make Roasted Carrot Hummus

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper, and add the olive oil and carrots to the sheet pan. Toss to coat. Roast the carrots in the oven for 30 minutes, flipping halfway during cooking.
  2. Add most of the roasted carrots and the rest of the hummus ingredients to a food processor or high speed blender (save a few roasted carrots for garnish).
  3. Pulse on low and increase speed. Blend until hummus is a smooth consistency. Serve with crudité, pita chips, or as a spread on a sandwich or wrap.
