- 3 tbsp tahini

- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
- 1
Add the chickpeas, tahini, cocoa powder, maple syrup, water, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt to a food processor. Process for about 1 minute, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula halfway through, until the mixture is mostly smooth.
- 2
Scrape down the sides again and continue processing for another 1–2 minutes until the hummus is completely smooth and creamy with no visible chickpea chunks. If the mixture is too thick to move freely in the processor, add water 1 teaspoon at a time until it loosens.
