Ingredients
- 15 oz canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Spread the drained and rinsed chickpeas out on a clean kitchen towel. Pat them dry completely, as this will help them crisp up in the oven.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried chickpeas with the olive oil, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the chickpeas are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Step 4
Spread the seasoned chickpeas out in a single layer on a baking sheet. For best results, use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, shaking the pan every 10 minutes to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
Step 6
Once the chickpeas are golden and crunchy, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Step 7
Transfer the cooled chickpeas to an airtight container for storage. They can be stored at room temperature for up to one week.
Step 8
Enjoy as a healthy snack or toss into salads for added texture and flavor.
