Inspired by our recent TV viewing featuring a vegan lifestyle, we wanted to try to incorporate more healthy alternatives in our snacking repertoire. This is my first attempt at making a sweet hummus. I browsed online, looking for something we might like. Other recipes I found had added sugars or whole-fat peanut butter. I wanted my first exposure to limit the sugars and extra fat, so I subbed in stevia and peanut powder (PB2, specifically). Honestly? I think a little brown sugar would have made this PERFECT, but this recipe is pretty darn good for a snack with so much nutrition!
