Ingredients

  • 1 cup Hummus See "Amazing Hummus" recipe
  • 4 Potatoes Use 8 potatoes if scooping out the flesh and using just skins.
  • 1 tsp Olive oil Use vegetable broth or water to make this oil-free.
  • 1 Onion
  • 3 Cloves of garlic
  • 2 tsp Maple syrup
  • 3 tsp Nutritional yeast
  • 1/8 tsp Salt
  • 5 drops Liquid Smoke
  • 1 tsp Parsley Optional

Instructions

  • Wash potatoes well, and remove any eyes or dark portions. Slice 4 raw potatoes about 1 cm to 2 cm thick (alternatively, bake 8 potatoes and use potato skins after scooping out some potato for use in another recipe).
  • Bake potato slices for 20 minutes at 425 degrees or until slightly soft and starting to brown (just slightly).
  • While the potatoes are cooking, finely dice one onion and 3 cloves of garlic.
  • Sauté the minced onion and garlic in olive oil until browned.
  • Sprinkle the onions and garlic with chipotle pepper (1/2 tsp). Add 2 tsp maple syrup, 3 tsp nutritional yeast, 1/8 tsp salt, and 5 drops of liquid smoke. Stir thoroughly and sauté until all liquid is absorbed (45 seconds). Turn off heat.
  • Arrange the potato skins or slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Top each potato skin or slice with 1 tablespoon of hummus and 1/2 tbsp of the onion and garlic mixture.
  • Bake at 425 degrees for 3 - 5 minutes until hummus starts to slightly brown.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle with parsley (optional). Serve hot or cold.
