How to Make Dill Pickle-Flavored Hummus

Making your own hummus is super simple. All you need is a couple of ingredients and your trusty blender or food processor.

Start with user Royhobb's Real Hummus recipe, it's an easily adaptable Allrecipes community favorite. All you have to do is swap out the the lemon juice for 4 tablespoons of pickle juice and as many chopped pickles as your heart desires (we recommend about ½ cup). Blend the hummus together. Then after its transferred to the bowl add one tablespoon of fresh dill to the mixture alongside the salt, pepper, and olive oil. And instead of garnishing with the reserved garbanzo beans, garnish the hummus with even more chopped pickles.

Serve it up with pita chips, pretzels, and veggies for dipping. Or add it to a sandwich, hamburger, or hot dog for a pickle flavor with a creamy texture. Once you try it, you'll be finding excuses to add this delicious hummus to everything. We promise if you bring a batch to any summer gathering it'll disappear quickly and you'll understand why pickle hummus is a pretty big dill.
