Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Sesame seeds
  • 8 tbsp Virgin olive oil
  • 0.25 cup Organic or fresh-squeezed orange juice or lemon juice
  • 15.5 floz Garbanzo bean (1 can)
  • 2 tbsp Garlic (1-2 cloves)
  • 1 dash Cinnamon for garnish
  • 3 tbsp Water
  • 1 dash Himalayan salt

Instructions
 

  • Heat sesame seeds in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Be sure to stir occasionally so the seeds don't burn.
  • Let the sesame seeds cool for a few minutes
  • Place toasted seeds in a food processor to blend. (I improvised with my Vitamix.)
  • Add 3-4 Tablespoons of olive oil to blended seeds then blend the mixture again until smooth
  • Scoop out 1/4 cup of sesame seed mixture (called Tahini) and package the rest for use at another time. (It can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.)
  • Strain and rinse the canned garbonzo beans
  • Blend the beans in a food processor
  • Add the 1/4 cup of sesame seed mixture (AKA Tahini) then blend again
  • Add water, orange juice or lemon juice, salt, garlic, and 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil then blend together until smooth
  • Scoop out your hummus and top with a dash of cinnamon to serve
