The squash works so well with this hummus, as it adds a touch of natural sweetness. For a bit of heat, I have added some chili, and finished the hummus with pumpkin seeds for a crunch!

Instructions
Preheat the oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake the diced butternut squash for about 20-25 minutes until it is soft.
Once the butternut is cooked and cooled - Place all ingredients in a food processor and process the dip until creamy. The longer you process it, the creamier it will get. It shoud take about 3-4 minutes.
Taste the hummus again briefly and season to your taste.
