Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup cooked or canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced or grated
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt to taste
  • Optional toppings: chopped parsley, everything bagel seasoning, or a drizzle of olive oil

Instructions

  1. Place eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a gentle simmer. Cook for 9-10 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice bath to cool for 5 minutes, then peel carefully.
  2. In a food processor, combine pumpkin puree, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, paprika, cumin, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  3. Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Gently scoop out the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl.
  4. Add 3/4 cup of the pumpkin hummus to the egg yolks and mash everything together with a fork or whisk until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Spoon the filling into a piping bag or zip-top bag with the tip snipped off. Pipe the filling into the hollowed-out egg whites, creating a swirl.
  6. Sprinkle the deviled eggs with extra paprika, chopped parsley, or your favorite toppings. Arrange them on a plate and serve.

Notes

[‘Start with cold water and bring it to a boil gradually to prevent eggs from cracking.’, ‘Cool eggs quickly in an ice bath for easy peeling.’, ‘Blend hummus for 2-3 minutes to ensure smoothness, scraping down the sides of the food processor occasionally.’, ‘Use a zip-top bag as an alternative to a piping bag for filling the eggs.’, ‘Adjust paprika and cumin to your taste, or add cayenne for extra heat.’, ‘Cover filled eggs tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving to keep them fresh.’]
