A luxuriously smooth and creamy white bean dip made with cannellini beans, fresh lemon, and garlic. Perfect for healthy snacking.

Ingredients

Scale

1 can (15oz/425g) white beans (such as cannellini), drained and rinsed
1 garlic clove
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
1/3 tsp lemon zest
1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
2 tbsp iced water
dried herbs (thyme, basil, or Italian seasoning)

Instructions

  1. Drain and rinse the canned beans thoroughly using a colander.
  2. Place the beans, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, zest, and salt into a food processor.
  3. Blend the mixture on high speed, slowly pouring in the iced water while the machine runs.
  4. Process for approximately 4 minutes until the texture is ultra-smooth and creamy.
  5. Taste and adjust salt or lemon juice levels if desired.
  6. Transfer to a bowl, garnish with olive oil and dried herbs, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For the smoothest texture, ensure you use iced water during the blending process.
  • High-speed blenders may require stopping to scrape the sides once or twice.
