Ingredients
Scale
- 2 (15oz) cans low-sodium chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
- 1–2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (plus more for topping)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly. Spread them on a kitchen towel and pat dry. Allow to sit for another 5-10 minutes to remove excess moisture.
- In a mixing bowl, combine chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, kosher salt, and black pepper. Drizzle olive oil over the dried chickpeas and toss to coat evenly. Add the seasoning mix and toss again until well-coated.
- Spread the seasoned chickpeas on the baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for about 25-30 minutes, shaking the pan every 10 minutes to ensure even crispness.
- Once golden brown, remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
