This Brownie Batter Hummus Vegan Fruit Dip recipe is the perfect accompaniment to your favorite fruits.  This isn’t your typical hummus, it’s loaded with peanut butter, maple syrup, and rich cocoa powder for the perfect chocolate creamy dip for fresh fruit, graham crackers, or even chocolate cookies.

I had never tried hummus until I had already lost 125 lbs. I was strictly a meat and potatoes girl and never an adventurous eater. However, my tastes became more daring once I started losing weight and eating healthier.  I never looked back and this vegan fruit dip recipe tastes like you’re licking the mixing bowl while the brownies are baking in the oven.

Are Chickpeas good for you?

Healthline states chickpeas contain a moderate amount of calories and several vitamins and minerals. They’re also a good source of fiber and protein. Chickpeas may even help keep your appetite under control. Find out more about the benefits of chickpeas HERE.

This dairy-free fruit dip has the added bonus of healthy fat from the addition of nut butter, so you will stay satisfied even longer.

What do you serve with Brownie Batter Hummus Vegan Fruit Dip?

Put away any thoughts you have of the savory-style chickpea dip, because this is sweet deliciousness. The only similarity is the use of chickpeas. Otherwise, it’s completely different and oh, so chocolatey.

This is the best vegan dip for strawberries, but it’s also great with nearly any type of fruit, like apples, pineapple, or bananas. My personal favorite is to dip pretzels into this vegan chocolate fruit dip for a little salty-sweet combination. You could also serve animal crackers, graham crackers, this creative brownie recipe (Waffles), or my Cinnamon Tortilla Chips.

It’s important to note that its shelf life can vary depending on the freshness of the ingredients used and the cleanliness of the utensils and containers used during preparation and serving. Always check for any signs of spoilage, such as off smells or changes in texture, before consuming leftover dip.
