Crispy Roasted Chickpeas
The ultimate healthy crunchy snack — crispy, spiced chickpeas that satisfy like potato chips but pack 9g of protein and 8g of fiber per serving. Make a big batch and keep them in your desk drawer.
Ingredients
- 1 can (15oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Optional: 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper for heat
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Dry chickpeas thoroughly with paper towels — the drier they are, the crispier they’ll get. Remove any loose skins.
-
Toss chickpeas with olive oil and all spices until evenly coated.
-
Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Roast for 25-30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until golden and crispy.
-
Cool for 5-10 minutes — they crisp up further as they cool.
