Dessert Hummus - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Poppy Seed Paste:
    2 1/2 cups white poppy seeds
    2 1/2 cups black poppy seeds
    1 1/2 cups coconut water
    2 tablespoons butter, softened, or to taste
    2 tablespoons honey, or to taste
    Dessert Hummus:
    2 1/2 cups macadamia nuts
    1/4 cup coconut water
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    2 tablespoons orange juice
    1 1/2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
    1 tablespoon lime juice
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 tablespoon raw sugar, or to taste
    1 sprig mint, leaves removed and stem discarded, or to taste
    2 teaspoons poppyseed oil
    1 teaspoon grated orange zest, or to taste
    1 pinch sea salt (optional)
    Spice Topping:
    2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
    2 tablespoons ground cloves
    2 pinches ground cardamom
    2 pinches ground nutmeg
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread white and black poppy seeds on a rimmed baking sheet.
    Bake in the preheated oven until lightly roasted and fragrant, 5 to 8 minutes.
    Transfer poppy seeds to a blender or mortar and pestle and grind into a fine flour. Add 1 1/2 cup coconut water and butter; blend until paste is creamy and has a pourable consistency. Add enough honey to make paste moderately sweet.
    Place macadamia nuts, 1/4 cup coconut water, lemon juice, orange juice, ginger, lime juice, olive oil, sugar, mint, poppyseed oil, orange zest, and salt in a food processor or blender. Add 1 1/2 cup poppy seed paste; blend until hummus is smooth. Transfer hummus to a serving bowl.
    Mix cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, and nutmeg together in a small bowl to make spice topping. Sprinkle over hummus.
