Almond Pulp Hummus

After I made my first batch of Almond Milk I was left with a lot of perfectly good almond pulp and I wasn't sure what to do with it. I turned to the interweb for some inspiration and found a lot of really good ideas. I decided to turn it into hummus and it turned out really well!

What you need...

• 1 1/4 cup almond pulp (all the leftovers from the almond milk)


• 1/4 cup water


• 1/4 cup olive oil


• juice of 1 lemon


• 2 cloves garlic, pealed


• 3 tablespoons almond butter


• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin


• 1/2 teaspoon ground paprika


• 1/2 teaspoon salt


• 1/4 teaspoon chili powder


• 6-8 drops of hot sauce (optional - I used Franks)


• pepper to taste

How to make it...

Put all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. If its not creamy enough, add more water or oil and blend. Repeat until you reach the desired consistency.



I garnished mine with some chili pepper flakes and paprika.



I served the hummus with celery, carrots, and cucumber slices. The hummus was so good, I couldn't even tell it wasn't made with chickpeas! K, byeeeeee.
