Prep: 5 min

Cook: 25 min

Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 2 cans 15oz canned chickpeas drained and dried
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp curry powder
• 0.5 tsp cumin
• 0.5 tsp paprika
• 0.25 tsp cayenne pepper
• 0.5 tsp garlic powder
• 0.75 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Thoroughly dry canned chickpeas using paper towels—moisture prevents crispiness.
2. In a bowl, toss dried chickpeas with olive oil until evenly coated.
3. In a small bowl, combine curry powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
4. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the oiled chickpeas and toss well to coat all pieces.
5. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, shaking the pan every 10 minutes, until the chickpeas are golden and very crispy. They should sound crunchy when stirred.
6. Let cool completely on the baking sheet—they'll become even crispier as they cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Serve as a snack, on salads, or with yogurt for breakfast.
