Steps

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment.
On the pan, toss the cauliflower and garlic with half the olive oil, the cumin, the salt and the black pepper.
Roast 25 to 30 minutes, stirring once, until the cauliflower is tender and browned at the edges. Spread the almonds on a corner of the pan for the last 5 minutes to toast.
Let the cauliflower and garlic cool for 5 minutes, then put them in a food processor with the white beans, tahini, lemon juice and lemon zest.
Blend, adding the water a little at a time, until smooth and spreadable.
Toast the whole-wheat bread until crisp, then cut each slice in half.
Spoon the spread into a bowl, drizzle with the remaining half of the olive oil, and top with the toasted almonds and parsley. Serve with the toast for spreading.
