Ingredients

For the Beetroot Hummus

2 medium-sized beetroots
1 can chickpeas drained
3 tablespoon peanut butter
2 tablespoon olive oil
½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
¼ cup agave syrup or honey
1 teaspoon lime zest

For the Blueberry Jam

½ cup blueberries
½ lime juiced
2 ½ tablespoon light brown sugar

For the Toast

¼ cup pistachios
¼ cup blue cheese
4 slices whole grain bread toasted
Fresh thyme a few sprigs for garnish, if desired

Instructions

Prepare the Beetroot Hummus

Preheat the oven to 365 degrees Fahrenheit and peel the beets.
Cut the beetroot into cubes and arrange the pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Top the cubes with olive oil, salt, and a few sprigs of time.
Bake the beets for 20 to 25 minutes, until they’re fork tender.
Allow the baked beets to cool for 10 to 13 minutes, then transfer them to the bowl of a food processor.
Add the chickpeas, peanut butter, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, cardamom, agave syrup, lime juice, and lime zest.
Blend all the ingredients together until smooth and creamy. Set the hummus aside until you’re ready to assemble your toast.

Make the Blueberry Jam

Mix the blueberries, lime juice, and sugar in a medium-sized bowl. Allow to rest for 10 minutes.
Then, heat a pan over high heat. Add the blueberry mixture to the hot pan, then reduce the heat to low and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, until the blueberries release their juices and small bubbles begin to form.
Prepare the Other Toast Ingredients
While the blueberry jam is cooling, take the time to prep the other ingredients for your toast. Break the blue cheese into small pieces. Then, add the pistachios to a blender to chop or use a mortar to smash the nuts.

Layer the Toast Ingredients

Start by spreading the beetroot hummus over a slice of toast. Then, top the hummus with blueberry jam. Sprinkle the crushed pistachios and blue cheese over the top of the toast, and enjoy!
