A delicious new twist on hummus made with warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamon and served as a dessert! Lightly sweetened with no sugar added apple juice and medjool dates. Kid friendly and parent approved.
Children and adults will love this tasty dessert with apple slices, pear slices and bananas. You might even enjoy a little dish of it with a spoon – I may or may not have done this myself!

Hi Tami,
I just made your Yummy Banana Oat Bars and they are delicious. I did not have the date sugar and didn’t want to go to the store so I used 1 tablespoon date syrup and the turned out great. I am taking them to a friend who says she doesn’t like “healthy stuff”. I won’t tell her they are healthy and I know she’ll love them! Next I am making the apple cinnamon hummus for my grandchildren!
Thanks again for the delicious recipes.

Hi Cathy,
You’ve been busy in the kitchen! I find it’s best not to point out to people that something I’ve made is vegan or healthy before they try it. Although at this point in my life if they know me they know it’s going to be both! All we can do is be an example for them. I hope your ghrandchikdren enjoy the dessert hummus.
Happy Cooking,
Tami
