Serves: about 40 crackers
Ingredients
  • Phyllo Crackers:
  • 6 sheets thawed phyllo pastry
  • 5 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 egg white
  • 3 Tbsp everything spice*
  • .
  • Sriracha Hummus:
  • 1 540mL can chickpeas
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 3 Tbsp tahini
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 Tbsp cilantro
  • 1 Tbsp Sriracha
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. On a clean working surface, lay out a sheet of phyllo. Brush generously with butter, then lay another sheet of phyllo on top, pressing down to ensure there are no "air bubbles" between phyllo sheets. Brush with butter, and repeat with all layers of the phyllo until you get to the top layer. Brush the top layer of phyllo with the egg white, then sprinkle with everything spice. Cut into bite-sized pieces and bake for 7-8 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Let cool to the touch.
  3. Meanwhile, make hummus: Drain the chickpeas, reserving the chickpea water to use later. Rinse the chickpeas well, then transfer to a food processor or blender. Add lemon juice, tahini, garlic, cilantro, and Sriracha; pulse until smooth. Add in some of the reserved chickpea water until desired consistency is reached.
  4. Serve immediately.
Notes
*To make your own everything spice, mix together the following:
4 tsp poppy seeds
4 tsp sesame seeds
4 tsp dried garlic
4 tsp dried onion
1 tsp sea salt
Store in an airtight container. T
This makes more than necessary for the crackers, so keep the leftovers for adding to other dishes!
