Add chickpeas, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, water, and seasoning to a food processor.

Blend until smooth and creamy (if needed, add more water one tablespoon at a time and continue blending until it reaches your desired consistency).

Transfer to a bowl. Drizzle with a little extra olive oil and top with toasted pine nuts if desired.

Serve with toasted baguette, warm pita bread, or crackers.
