Thereβs something about the simplicity of beans, herbs, and a drizzle of lemon that feels both humble and elegant β like Sunday dinner dressed up for company. This creamy White Bean Dip is one of those dishes that looks fancy but comes together in minutes.
Whether youβre spreading it on toasted baguettes or serving it as a dip at your next gathering, it delivers a smooth, savory balance with a sweet pop of color from pomegranate seeds or dried cranberries.
I love combining chickpeas and great northern beans. It’s creamy and smooth and the taste is mild and takes on whatever spices you like.
Pro Tip
Want it even silkier? Add a tablespoon of aquafaba (the liquid from your chickpeas) or a splash of lemon juice while blending. It helps the dip whip up extra creamy without oil.
