Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Cut the top off the head of garlic so the cloves are slightly exposed. Drizzle with 1/4 tsp olive oil per bulb, wrap in tin foil and roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, either directly on the rack, on a baking tray or in a muffin tin. Once you can easily press the foil packets, the garlic is ready.
3. Remove from the oven, open the packet and let cool while you prepare the rest of the hummus.
4. Add the rest of the ingredients to a food processor or high-speed blender. Mix until smooth and creamy.
5. Once the garlic is cool enough to handle, squeeze each clove out of skin and into the hummus mixture.
6. Blend until completely mixed and smooth.
7. Adjust the consistency with water (add 1-2 tbsp to thin, if needed) and then season with salt and pepper, if desired.
8. Store in refrigerator in an air-tight container for up to 6 days.
