If making this ahead of time, press plastic directly onto the surface before covering and chilling to prevent the mixture from turning brown on top (blame the avocado). This is one of five ways to riff on classic hummus (see more recipes here).

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Process avocado, chickpeas, tahini, lime juice, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin, and 1 cup cilantro in a food processor until smooth, about 1 minute. With the motor running, stream in 2 Tbsp. oil, then continue to process until hummus is very light and creamy, about 1 minute longer. Taste and season with salt, if needed.
Step 2
Transfer hummus to a shallow bowl. Top with pepitas and cilantro and drizzle with more oil.
Step 3
Do Ahead: Hummus can be made 4 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container, cover surface with plastic, and chill.
