Ingredients
- 2 (15 ozs) can chickpeas or garbanzo beans
- 2 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tsp paprika
- Pinch of cayenne pepper or chipotle (or to taste)
- Pinch of sea salt
- For variation, try adding one of more of these spices:
- 1/4 tsp turmeric (Optional)
- 1/4 tsp curry powder (Optional)
- Pinch of cumin (Optional)
Directions
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F. Rinse and drain the chickpeas and pat dry in a clean kitchen towel. Place in a large bowl. Add the spices and mix or toss gently so you do not break the delicate chickpeas. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread them out in a single layer. Bake until golden and crisp about 30 to 35 minutes. Shake the tray after 15 minutes to crips uniformly. When ready, transfer to a serving bowl. Maybe eaten hot, warm or cold.

June 3, 2012Hi! Kathy,
This chickpea snack should have a dry, crisp and spicy outer skin and be softer inside. Next time, try pre-heating your oven to 425 degrees and cooking them for 25-30 minutes. Thanks for your feedback.
