Coconut Curry Hummus is a unique way to jazz up traditional hummus. With notes of turmeric and other curry spices, this hummus makes a great dip! Ready in just 5 minutes!
Especially as the weather gets warmer, I love to snack on raw veggies. My all time favorite vegetable to snack on is carrots. But I also enjoy some other veggies like bell peppers and celery. Whatever vegetable I'm snacking on, I always want something to dip it in.
This coconut curry hummus fits the bill!

Curry spice is filled with some of the most delicious spices. Coriander, turmeric, mustard, cumin, fenugreek, paprika, cayenne, cardamom, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves come together for a beautiful sweet and savory spice.
I find it easiest to buy a pre-made curry spice, but you can also mix your own. (Especially if you want to add even more turmeric for those antioxidants!)
Why I love this Coconut Curry Hummus
- Dietary Needs - this hummus is dairy-free, plant-based, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free

Ingredient Notes & Substitutions
- Chickpeas: Be sure to buy a low/no added salt can.
- Coconut Milk or Cream: this is canned coconut milk, not from the carton. You can find this in the asian section or baking section of the grocery store. (This is replacing the oil in the hummus, so don't skip this!)
- Tahini: a classic hummus ingredient, tahini adds a sesame flavor
- Garlic: be sure to mince your garlic before blending to cut down on the tang. You can use garlic powder if you don't have fresh garlic.
- Curry Powder: the easiest option is to buy a pre-made curry powder.
- Salt

FAQ & Expert Tips
Most traditional Middle Eastern hummus recipes are made without oil! They usually use fresh chickpeas. This is an option.
But there's another way: add more coconut milk or aquafaba.
Save the liquid from your can of chickpeas or grab some extra coconut milk and add another ¼ cup for an ultra silky hummus.
Homemade hummus does not last as long as store-bought.
Store this coconut curry hummus in an air tight container in the fridge. It will last 7-10 days.
Serving Suggestions
Hummus is classically served with pita, but here are a few other options:
- Pretzels
- Raw veggies (like carrots, celery, peppers, or cucumbers)
- Homemade Crackers
- In a sandwich
- By itself - eat it by the spoonful!
