Chickpeas
- 1 15-ounce can garbanzo beans (240 g or 1.5 cups, drained and rinsed)
Seasoning
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat and dry chickpeas: Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread the chickpeas on a clean dish towel and pat them dry thoroughly for the best crispiness.
- Season chickpeas: Place dried chickpeas into a medium bowl and add avocado oil, sea salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Toss well to evenly coat each chickpea with the oil and seasonings.
- Prepare for baking: Transfer the seasoned chickpeas onto a small rimmed baking sheet, such as a 1/4 sheet pan, spreading them in an even layer.
- Bake chickpeas: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Oven times may vary, so keep an eye on them to prevent burning. Once done, set aside to cool completely.
- Store and serve: Store cooled chickpeas in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 5 days. Enjoy them as a crunchy snack or sprinkle over soups, salads, and dips for added texture and protein.

- Store roasted chickpeas in an airtight container to maintain their crunch.
- Use a rimmed baking sheet to prevent chickpeas from rolling off while baking.
