How To Make Crispy Chickpeas
Crispy chickpeas are so versatile. They can be enjoyed as a crunchy vegan snack or tossed into a salad added texture. Chickpeas are high in protein and they’re just delicious. I snack on these like corn nuts. Less guilt with just as much satisfaction. Here is how to make crispy chickpeas…
Ingredients:
- 1 can of chickpeas
- olive oil
- salt + pepper
- garlic powder
- onion powder
- smoked paprika
- cumin powder
For equipment, you will only need a baking sheet.
How to make crispy chickpeas
You will start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Open up your can of chickpeas and rinse it off thoroughly. If you used dry chickpeas, make sure you have soaked them in water for at least 8 hours (over night.) Pat the chickpeas dry. Spread the chickpeas onto your baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika and cumin powder. I just dash it on to taste. Spread them all around to make sure the flavors are evenly dispersed. Put them into the oven for 30 minutes. Take them out and allow it them to cool before serving. Try them out and see how you like the taste or texture. You can add more seasoning if you like. I sometimes like to turn off the oven and keep the chickpeas in for another 5-10 minutes if I want them extra crispy.
Store it in the fridge or even in the pantry if you get them extra crispy. I like to keep mine in a small glass jar.
