Mediterranean Hummus Tart (Vegan)

Cook Time:
25 minutes
Total Time:
35 minutes
A super simple to make tart, filled with delicious Mediterranean flavours. Makes 1 large or 2 small tarts.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 medium bell peppers, sliced
- 1 small courgette / zucchini, sliced
- 1 medium red onion, sliced into wedges
- Approx 10 baby tomatoes, whole or halved
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 sheet of vegan-friendly puff pastry, room temperature
- 1 tbsp chopped basil
- 1 x 300 g / 10 oz pot of hummus
- Fresh basil, torn (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 220C / 430F.
- Drizzle the oil over the vegetables in a medium roasting tray. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Roast for 20-25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the puff pastry sheet. You can either make one large tart or two smaller ones. To make two, simply slice the sheet in half widthways. You may need to trim it a little to fit onto a baking sheet.
- Score a 3cm border around the sheet and prick the middle with a fork a few times to stop it puffing up too much. Bake for 15-20 minutes (or according to the packet's instructions).
- Once the puff pastry is cooked, remove from the oven and top with the hummus, using as much or as little as you like. Then top with the roast vegetables.
- Scatter over some fresh basil (optional) and enjoy! Delicious served both hot and cold.

Tried with Lemon Dill hummus and squeezed some fresh lemon after baking. It came out delicious.
This was an absolute winner with us! Thank you
We didn’t have any fresh basil, so I used a basil pesto that I had just made and put that on the bottom of the pastry then the hummus and it was Devine! Drizzle with balsamic glaze and topped with rocket and everyone was drooling. So easy too
Thanks
Love these, three of my favorite things: tarts, hummus and veggies.
Can you refrigerate these to be eaten the next day?
I live on asmall island called Menorca in The Balaeric. Can you tell me where vegan puff pastry is sold hopefully just not in the states. Anything that has to be brought onto the island costs an arm and a leg. Very expensive to live here especially if you want to go vegan like me
Dear, most od the cheap puff pastry is vegan since they use vegetable oil instead of butter. Just check the ingridirnts list and look for butter
I made this today, so tasty and easy to make. Thank you.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, thanks Adele!
So simple! This is perfect, veggies and hummus are such a great combination and to make it into a full meal is a wonderful idea!
Thanks Lucie! Hummus is always a wonderful idea…
That crust looks so flaky and delicious. Such a vibrant and healthy recipe.
This is so pretty and sounds completely yum! I love the idea of hummus as a bed for all those lovely veggies.
I can’t tell you how good it is! I just finished the rest off yesterday served cold from the fridge. YUM!
This tart looks perfect! I have a major, I mean MAJOR, hummus obsession so this is absolutely perfect for me! Thanks for such a great recipe ;)
Me too, Vanessa! I don’t think I’ll ever get sick of the stuff..
This is such a wonderful combination! I love how colorful yours turned out – and it’s a great idea to top it with hummus, don’t know why I never thought of this before!
I don’t know why I didn’t think of it sooner! It’s so simple and just makes delicious sense.
What a gorgeous tart. I’ve not made one like this for ages. I usually top mine with pesto then either mushrooms or balsamic roasted cherry tomatoes, but this looks much more colourful and interesting. You’ve inspired me to make it your way. Stumbled, pinned and yummed. I’ve scheduled this across a lot of my Pinterest boards for this week, so hopefully you’ll see a lovely surge in new readers.
Well aren’t you lovely, Jacqueline! Thanks for sharing :-) I love the idea of adding a bit of pesto too, might have to try a pesto version next time!
This looks SO good! I love the combo of the hummus and veggies on the puff pastry. I can totally see why you eat this for days…
Thanks Sophia! Just finished the rest of it yesterday cold from the fridge – still tasted amazing!
There is no way this masterpiece is easy to make. Can’t wait to try this out this weekend. It looks delicious :)
Haha! But fortunately it is SO easy, Mary. Let me know if you try it :-)
Anything on puff pastry is delicious! But especially hummus and roasted veggies. Yum!
I agree! Thanks Jenn :-)
Simply lovely! The perfect light plate <3 Now I only wish they made vegan and gf puff pastry :P Haha!
I actually saw gluten-free puff pastry in the supermarket the other day, didn’t check to see if it was vegan though. I’ll have a look next time!
I kind of have a hummus obsession. I could honestly eat it straight from the tub (tehehe) This tart is calling my name!
Me too. I’m basically like winnie the pooh eating honey out of the jar with his paws, when it comes to hummus!
What size is a large pot of hummus? A litre? I’d like to make this, but am not sure just how much hummus to use. Thanks.
Standard-sized hummus pots from the supermarkets are around 250g I think, the pot I used was 230g – you might not use all of it, depending on how much hummus you want to add to the tart! Hope that helps. Let me know how it goes :-)
