Saturated with umami flavor, this pizza hummus is like a roasted tomato puree, voluptuous “cheese” sauce, and the creamiest hummus possible all wrapped up in one spreadable, dippable package.

How to Prepare Pizza Hummus [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Place the sun-dried tomatoes into your food processor or blender. Add in the roasted garlic, and pulse briefly just to break down the two to a coarse pulp and make them easier to incorporate later. Follow that with all the other ingredients, and make sure you start with just 1/4 teaspoon of salt now so that you can adjust it to taste later.
Let the motor run until everything is mostly combined; it will probably look fairly dry. Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and then with the motor running, begin to stream in the leftover oil that was packed with the sun-dried tomatoes, until it reaches a consistency you’re happy with. For a lighter option, simply use water instead.
Taste, add more salt if needed, and then let the machine run for another 5–10 minutes, until the hummus is velvety smooth and creamy.
To serve, try topping it with your favorite pizza add-ons, such as finely chopped vegan pepperoni, sliced olives, roasted red peppers, sautéed mushrooms, or anything else you like on your pie!
