Fattet Hummus
Also known as: فتة حمص
Layered Lebanese pita, chickpeas and tahini-yogurt sauce with toasted nuts.

About Fattet Hummus
Lina Jebeile’s fattet hummus layers crisp pita with chickpeas and a garlicky tahini-yogurt sauce. The source presents it as a Lebanese breakfast or brunch preparation, distinct from versions with meat or eggplant.
Sumac seasons the bread, with cumin and cinnamon flavouring the chickpeas. Ghee-toasted almonds and pine nuts provide richness, while Aleppo pepper and fresh parsley finish the dish.
The crisp bread contrasts with creamy sauce and soft chickpeas. Optional pomegranate seeds and an olive-oil drizzle are published garnish choices, with the layers assembled close to serving.
