White Bean Pumpkin Hummus with Fried Sage

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

A unique take on the traditional hummus! Earthy pumpkin with a fresh punch from fried sage leaves and savoury roasted garlic. This White Bean Pumpkin Hummus with Fried Sage may be my new favourite hummus recipe!


This non-traditional hummus dip uses white beans instead of the classic chickpeas and subs peanut butter for the typical tahini. The peanut butter here complements the sweeter flavour of the pumpkin, while the fried sage adds an aromatic herby flavour.

How to make White Bean Pumpkin Hummus with Fried Sage

  1. Add the white beans, pumpkin, spices, peanut butter and lemon juice to a food processor then blend until smooth.
  2. Next, heat a small frying pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. When its hot, add the sage leaves and garlic. Stir fry for about 1 minute until fragrant, stirring constantly to make sure the leaves and garlic don’t burn!
  3. Remove from heat and add to the hummus mixture in the food processor. Blend again until the sage and garlic has been incorporated. You may find the hummus becomes smoother and creamier thanks to the olive oil!
  4. Optional: Fry the additional sage in olive oil in the same pan over medium high heat to reserve for topping.
  5. Enjoy with your favourite veggies, whole grain crackers or pretzels!

An easy and delicious seasonal appetizer!

This recipe is perfect for snacking, and provides plant-based protein and lots of fibre to keep you full between meals! It feels a little more indulgent than the typical hummus, making it a great addition to your holiday snacking boards.
Pair this dip with raw veggies like cucumbers, carrots, radishes, snap peas or anything you like! I also love this dip with some pretzels or whole-grain crackers.

Serving suggestions:

  • Carrot sticks
  • Cucumber coins
  • Snap peas
  • Celery sticks
  • Whole-grain crackers
  • Pretzels
  • Pitas

Hi IG friends 👋 It’s been great getting to k Hi IG friends 👋

It’s been great getting to know you all through IG & my free demos in my FB group! I’d love to get to know you all a little more so I thought I’d introduce myself by sharing some fun facts🥰

5 Fun Facts about me:

• I lived in Sault Ste Marie, Ontario for 1 year! I moved for my dietetic internship in 2019 & loved every minute of it! While living there I tried cross country skiing & shoe shoeing for the first time with my official tour guide @lauras_lunch 😘

• I love hiking & being outdoors. The second photo is me hiking the Sleeping Giant in Thunder Bay 🏔 I walk the trails around my hometown with my dog a lot & I’ve also hiked in Banff, Alberta 👟

• I never paint my nails. 💅 I’ve always strived to be that person but I use my hands a lot- I love to cook & do DIYs so they always get ruined in a day!

• I loooove travelling in Canada! I’ve been to both B.C. and Alberta, I’ve travelled a lot around Ontario- the third photo is from canoeing in Ottawa 🇨🇦 I’ve also been to Quebec & hope to check out the east coast when we can travel again! The only catch is I HATE road trips, I can’t sit still for that long! 

• I developed a cake decorating habit over quarantine. 🎂The last pic is a photo my sister snapped of her birthday cake I made for her- I had to make sure I got the credit 😉

I’d love to learn more about you! Tell me a fun fact about yourself in the comments below ❤️🥰
