Low‑Carb Purple Sweet Potato Hummus (Keto-Friendly Recipe)

Ingredients — Purple Sweet Potato Hummus

• Yield: ~6 servings; serving size: 2 tbsp hummus

1. Roast or steam a small purple sweet potato until tender (about 20–25 minutes at 400°F / 200°C for roasting). Cool and remove skin.
2. Combine roasted sweet potato, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and garlic powder in a food processor.
3. Blend until smooth, adding 1 tbsp of water at a time to reach desired consistency (about 1–2 minutes total blending).
