In reality it would just be chickpeas and tahini, with the garlic, lemon juice and salt omitted.

Then one could add honey to make it sweet, and maybe cinnamon, vanilla or nutmeg.

End result would be a bit like a soft, spreadable halva.

That makes sense..

Not to detract from what you're saying, but changing subjects slightly... have you ever had honey garlic? It is an absolutely wonderful flavor profile and I'm not certain we should discount it from our "sweet hummus" thought experiment lol

I haven't, though garlic is rather sweet anyhow, so can imagine how it might be.

Check out how to make fermented garlic honey, you won't regret it.

Slightly unclear from the change in word order, but is this a variety of garlic which happens to have a distinct honey flavour, a honey infused with fermented garlic, or a fermented blend of honey & garlic?
