Instructions
Add all of the ingredients (except chopped hazelnuts) to a food processor. Process for 1-3 minutes, until smooth and creamy.
1 14-ounce can garbanzo beans, ¾ cup pumpkin puree, ⅓ cup hazelnut butter, 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Taste and add more salt, maple syrup, or spices if needed, and process again.
Spread out in a shallow bowl or platter. If possible, chill for 30-45 minutes (optional, this just firms it up a bit).
Just before serving, drizzle with 1-2 teaspoons of maple syrup and garnish with a pinch or two of nutmeg and chopped hazelnuts. Serve with apple slices, cinnamon pita chips, or ginger snaps for scooping.
