The softest, chewiest hummus bread you'll ever eat. This bread is made with just a few simple ingredients and is perfect for sandwiches, wraps, or simply eating on its own. The hummus in the bread gives it a unique flavor and texture that you won't find in any other bread. You can use any type of hummus you like, but I recommend using a creamy hummus with a good amount of tahini. I also like to add a little bit of olive oil to the bread to make it extra moist and flavorful.
Hummus bread is a relatively new creation, but it has quickly become a favorite among hummus lovers. The first hummus bread recipe was created by a woman named Sarah Cohen in 2006. Cohen was looking for a way to use up some leftover hummus, and she came up with the idea of adding it to bread dough. The result was a delicious and moist bread that was perfect for sandwiches and wraps. Since then, many other hummus bread recipes have been created, but Cohen's original recipe remains one of the most popular. Hummus bread is a versatile bread that can be used in a variety of ways. It can be sliced and served as a sandwich bread, or it can be used to make wraps, pizzas, or even croutons. It can also be used as a side dish or appetizer. No matter how you choose to eat it, hummus bread is sure to please everyone at the table.
