Ingredients

1 large bulb garlic

2 tbsp olive oil (for roasting garlic)

34 cloves roasted garlic

1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2/3 cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened)

1 heaped tbsp tahini

1 tbsp maple syrup or honey

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp finely chopped fresh thyme

Seasoned salt, to taste

2 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp ice-cold water

1012 fresh figs

1 tsp vegan feta per fig

1012 small walnut chunks

Simply7 lightly salted snacks, crumbled

Drizzle of honey (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the top off garlic bulb, drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast 30–35 minutes until soft and caramelized. Let cool.
  2. In a food processor, combine roasted garlic cloves, chickpeas, pumpkin puree, tahini, maple syrup or honey, lemon juice, thyme, and salt. Blend until smooth.
  3. Add olive oil and ice-cold water, blending until creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  4. Slice figs halfway open. Spoon 1 tsp vegan feta into each, add a small walnut chunk, and a dollop of pumpkin hummus.
  5. Sprinkle crumbled Simply7 snacks over figs for crunch and drizzle honey if desired.
  6. Serve immediately as an appetizer or snack.

Notes

Swap fresh figs for dates or apple slices for a fruity twist.

Use roasted pumpkin instead of canned puree for richer flavor.

Add smoked paprika or cumin for a spicy kick.

Top with pomegranate seeds for extra color and freshness.

Store leftover hummus in an airtight container in the fridge up to 4 days.

Stuffed figs are best enjoyed fresh.
