Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Chickpeas: After draining and rinsing the chickpeas, pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps them become crispier during roasting.
  3. Season the Chickpeas: In a mixing bowl, combine the dried chickpeas with olive oil, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the chickpeas are well coated.
  4. Roast: Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  5. Cool and Serve: Once roasted, let the chickpeas cool for a few minutes. Enjoy them as a snack on their own, or sprinkle them over salads for added crunch!
