Gluten Free Black Bean Hummus Recipe

If you are gluten free or a lover of gluten, you are going to eat up this easy homemade black bean hummus recipe. The beautiful thing about this recipe is that it can be made in less than 5 minutes in the food processor. I dare you not to eat the whole batch on one sitting.

You are going to want to serve your black bean hummus on my homemade black bean burger. The two are a protein powerhouse! If you can’t get enough black beans in your diet be sure to make my crock pot black bean soup recipe. Or a summer favorite, black bean, corn, mango salsa!

I rounded out the flavor profile with a couple cloves of roasted garlic.

3. Use the blade attachment in the bowl of your food processor, place all the ingredients in the bowl of the food processor.Secure the top of the food processor.
4. Turn your food processor on and allow to process until your desired texture.
5. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and pulse a few more time.

What is the best texture for black bean hummus?

This is the texture I am looking for when making this recipe. If you like it a little softer or looser, add a few more tablespoons of olive oil.
