White Bean Dip with Seasoned Baked Pita Chips Recipe
Best white bean dip! I've tried a lot of white bean dips over the years and this one is definitely my favorite. This delicious white bean dip is a great addition to any party menu. It is quick and easy to make – and your guests are sure to love the subtle balance of flavors packed into each bite. It is perfect with mildly seasoned pita chips or vegetable crudités.
This white kidney bean dip is always a hit at my house. This dip is made with cannellini beans which are also called white kidney beans. For years, I thought cannellini beans came from a certain region in Italy and didn't know they were actually just white kidney beans.
Tip: A little bit of fresh sage goes a long way. If you aren’t sure how much to use, start with a small amount. Then taste and add more, if desired.
Although you can use the same extra virgin olive oil for the entire recipe, adding a drizzle of a higher quality variety right before serving will add an extra “pop” of flavor.
This white bean dip vegan is sure to please both my non-vegan and vegan followers!
Yield: 6 servings
Total Prep Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
Seasoned Baked Pita Chip Recipe:
6 pitas
3 T. olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
White Bean Dip Recipe:
1 15 oz. can cannellini beans (white kidney beans), drained and rinsed
3 cloves fresh garlic, peeled
2 T. fresh lemon juice
2 – 3 large fresh sage leaves, chopped
1/3 c. regular extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
1 T. high-quality extra virgin olive oil
Dash of cayenne pepper
Directions:
Step 1:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Step 2:
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut each pita into 8 equal-sized wedges. Lightly brush pita wedges with olive oil on both sides and place them on a lined baking sheet.
Step 3:
Season pita with salt and pepper before placing it in the oven. Bake for 5-6 minutes and then grab your tongs and turn each wedge to toast the opposite side. Return to oven and continue baking for another 5 or 6 minutes, or until pita wedges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside.
Step 4:
Add cannellini beans (white kidney beans), fresh garlic, lemon juice, sage leaves, and olive oil to the bowl of a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. You can also forgo the electronics and go the Mediterannean way of preparation of using a mortar and pestle to grind the ingredients together until smooth.
Final Step:
Pour bean mixture into a serving bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Right before serving, add a dash of cayenne pepper and a drizzle of some high-quality extra virgin olive oil.
Serve with seasoned pita chips or vegetable crudités. Enjoy!

I love to taste different recipes and to be honest, this photo has made my mouth water.
Ive never had white bean dip. Looks delish and healthy.
This is a good dip to serve for our Valentine’s Day get together. I like that it’s white, it will go great with the red and white theme.
This looks so yummy! I need to work on my cooking skills.
We love beans and white beans are a favorite. I never thought of making a dip out of it! That is genius. I will make this recipe for my husband’s birthday!
Yay! Another dip recipe I can try this week. We’d love to have this on game days. With 3 football fans in the house (my husband and 2 sons), having something to snack on while watching the game is a must!
Aaaahhhhh…this is a brand new one to me! I love dips and bread. I will surely try this.
This looks so yummy! I love bean dip, but I’ve never had it with white beans. And with toasted pita bread, it sounds heavenly. Thanks for sharing.
I LOVE a good bean dip and this one looks amazing. I always really enjoy pita chips. I will have to give this a try sometime. Thanks!
Autumn, baking Pita like this is truly revolutionary! Until now I have always heated them up in the toster, this will definitely change after now 🙂
That dip looks really good. I love all bean based recipes.
Now that is an awesome dip for parties or other gatherings. The Super Bowl is coming up soon, and this would be great to make.
