These chickpeas are delicious, crunchy and nutritious! You only need to drain them, drizzle with olive oil and preferred seasoning if desired, and put them in the oven and then they’re done. I love making these chickpeas. They are so convenient to have at home when you want something healthy to snack on, if you want to add something crunchy in your salad or food or top your breakfast bowl wit them.

These are made plain with no seasoning, but you can just add any spices you like when making them. Some of my favorite seasonings are:

  • Cinnamon
  • Cayenne pepper
  • Cumin
  • Salt
  • Cardamom
  • Honey/agave/fiber syrup

Don’t overtake these chickpeas, because then they will be dry and taste like paper. You only want the to get crunchy and have some color. So taste

A few tips:

  • Drain the chickpeas well to remove as much excess water as possible.
  • You can make these chickpeas oil free or drizzle some olive oil if you prefer them with oil. I usually use just a little bit of olive oil to make sure they get really golden brown.
  • Season them with any seasoning you like and prefer, these chickpeas are so easy to vary in taste by changing the seasoning.
  • Don’t bake the chickpeas for too long so that they get too dry. They should be golden brown and crunchy. But have in mind that when you take them out of the oven they will get dryer while they cool down. So they can feel just a little soft when you take them out of the oven, but still be golden brown.
  • Store these roasted chickpeas in a airtight jar.
