Ingredients
- 2 (15-ounces) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Drain the chickpeas and rinse them well with water. Drain them well. Place the drained chickpeas between two kitchen towels (paper towels can be used) and dry them as much as possible by rolling them between the towels gently. Some of the skins may come off. Just discard them.
- Place the chickpeas on a single layer on a baking sheet and drizzle with the oil. Sprinkle with the cumin, chili powder and cayenne pepper and toss to combine.
- Bake for 50 minutes or until crispy and golden, shaking the sheet pan at around halfway through the cooking process. Remove from the oven and let them cool.
Notes
- Best eaten the same day but will last for about 3-4 days at room temperature.
- You can cut the salt amount if you wish. You can always add more after baking them (If needed, add extra salt while the chickpeas are still hot).
