Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 whole heads garlic
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas
2 small lemons, juiced
1 teaspoon ground paprika
3 (6 inch) whole wheat pita breads

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Slice the top off each head of garlic. Drizzle the cut ends with 1 tablespoon olive oil and wrap in foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove and let sit until cool enough to handle. Turn on the broiler.
  • Reserve liquid from chickpeas. Rinse and drain chickpeas; transfer to a blender.
  • Add 1/2 of the reserved chickpea liquid to the blender with lemon juice and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Squeeze in roasted garlic from 2 of the heads. Blend until creamy, adding more chickpea liquid if needed.
  • Split pita rounds and cut into quarters. Place on a baking sheet.
  • Place under the preheated broiler until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Place hummus into a bowl. Make a well in the center and squeeze roasted garlic from the remaining head into the well. Sprinkle with paprika. Serve with pitas.
