Equipment

1 -Baking sheet
1 Parchment paper
1 Mixing bowl
1 Kitchen towel or paper towels
1 Measuring spoons

Ingredients

15 oz Chickpeas drained and rinsed
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder optional
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cumin optional

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and drain and rinse the chickpeas.
Spread the chickpeas on a kitchen towel and gently pat them dry. Make sure they are completely dry before roasting to help them crisp properly. Remove any loose skins.
Transfer the chickpeas to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Toss with olive oil and sea salt until evenly coated.
Roast for 20–30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and, while still warm, toss with paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, cumin, or your favorite spice blend.
Let cool slightly before serving for maximum crunch.

Notes

Roasted chickpeas are best enjoyed the same day for optimal crispiness.
Store loosely covered at room temperature for up to 2 days.
Avoid refrigerating, as they become chewy quickly.
Experiment with spice blends like curry powder, ranch seasoning, chili lime, or Cajun seasoning.
