  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 1 ½ cups

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Drain and rinse the cannellini beans thoroughly to remove excess sodium and liquid. Peel the garlic clove and chop the fresh rosemary finely.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Place the cannellini beans, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, chopped rosemary, salt, and pepper into a food processor.
  3. Blend Until Smooth: Process the mixture until creamy and smooth. If the dip is too thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of water gradually to reach the desired consistency.
  4. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the dip and add additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice as preferred for balance and flavor enhancement.
  5. Serve: Drizzle a little olive oil on top before serving. The dip can be enjoyed warm or chilled, perfect with pita chips, roasted veggies, crackers, or crostini.

Notes

  • This dip can be served either warm or chilled depending on preference.
  • Pairs beautifully with pita chips, roasted vegetables, crackers, or crostini for versatile serving options.
  • Use fresh rosemary for best flavor; dried rosemary can be used but reduce quantity as it is more potent.
  • To make the dip smoother, peel the cannellini beans if desired.
