Homemade garlic hummus

2 tbsp minced garlic
1 can chickpeas, drained and liquid reserved
2 tbsp smooth peanut butter ( I use almond)
A handful fresh parsley leaves
1 lemon, zested and juiced
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
Pinch kosher salt
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Sometimes I add crushed red pepper flakes for a little heat.

Add the beans and 1/2 of the reserved liquid and process finely or to desired consistency. Add the garlic,peanut butter, parsley, lemon zest and juice, black pepper, and salt. Process until it forms a paste. Drizzle in the olive oil and process until it reaches the consistency of mayonnaise.
