Hummus Cups


This quick and easy recipe was on Pinterest from the site "bakerette.com". They were quick and easy and everyone seemed to love them. They were devoured pretty quickly! How cute and fun these are for a party! I adapted them slightly by using reduced fat crescent roll dough and by omitting the salt. They are delicious!

Makes 24 ( 1 point +)

  • 1 package reduced fat crescent roll dough
  • about 1/2 c. store bought hummus
  • English cucumber
  • 12 grape tomatoes, halved


Preheat oven to 375. Roll out crescent roll dough so that seams are sealed. Using a 2 or 2-1/4 inch biscuit cutter, cut out 24 circles. Press circles into the bottom and up sides of mini muffin cups. Use remaining dough to fill in where dough seems thin. Prick dough with a fork on bottom and sides.

 Bake 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven. Crescent dough will be puffy, so while still hot, press a spoon against the sides to make a mini bowl. Cool completely.

Slice 12 thin rounds of cucumber and then slice those in half. Slice tomatoes in half.

Once cooled, remove dough and set on a tray. Fill each with about 1 tsp. hummus. Top with one cucumber slice and one tomato half. Refrigerate until serving.
