It seriously boggles my mind. How is time going by so fast. I am already working on holiday foods. No really, I am. That is what I spent Friday doing and I have to say, I kind of loved every second of it. Holiday freak over here.
So letโs talk Halloween. I love Halloween and seeing as there is so much cool stuff floating around on this big old internet of ours I thought itโd be fun to throw in a few spooky links this week. Youโre never too old for a little Halloween funโฆ or candy. Just sayin.
First up though, this Spicy Chipotle Pumpkin Hummus. Itโs so autumn like and so good. Adding pumpkin to hummus only makes things creamier, smoother and just plain better. Then throw in a few chipotle peppers and YUM.

- 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
- 2 chipotle chilies in adobo

- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- kosher salt and pepper
Instructionsย
- 1. Combine the chickpeas, pumpkin and olive oil in a food processor and puree until smooth.2.ย Finely chop the chipotle chilies and add to a bowl. Mix the chilies with the garlic, honey, cinnamon, cayenne, cumin, oregano, chili powder, and salt and pepper. Stir half chipotle mix into the hummus, and add the remaining to the top of the hummus. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with pepitas seeds before serving.3.ย Serve with chips, naan or other foods for dipping.

Thanks so much, Will!!
Even with all that spice, when made according to the recipe I found it bland and pasty. Far too much pumpkin puree, even with all of the chipotle mixture blended in. I’d either halve the pumpkin, or substantially increase the spice, and add some lemon juice. Or find a different recipe altogether.
Hi Paul,
Thanks for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback! So sorry to hear this recipe was not enjoyed! xx
Hi. We loved this. I doubled the recipe for a party. My food processor struggled to get the right texture, so I added more olive oil and the juice of a lemon. It was a terrific appetizer. Will definitely make it again.
Hey Will,
