Chickpea snacks are protein packed, easily portable, and a perfect afternoon snack.
Not only is it cheaper, but you get to make them whatever flavor you want. Just salt? Sure! Cajun seasoning? Absolutely! Ranch? They’re easier than you think and so tasty. These little beans get so crispy in just a short time in the oven. You’ll be surprised at how addicting they are.
ingredients:
1 15-ounce can chickpeas
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon olive oil
directions:
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Rinse and drain the chickpeas, ensuring to shake off as much water as possible. Pick through the chickpeas and remove as many hulls (skins) from them as possible. Line a mixing bowl with a paper towel and add the chickpeas to the bowl. Roll the chickpeas around in the bowl to absorb as much water off of them as possible. Remove the paper towel from the bowl and drizzle the olive oil over the chickpeas. Sprinkle the remaining ingredients over the chickpeas and gently stir them to evenly coat. Spread them on a lined (silpat or parchment) baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes until crisp all the way through. Let cool completely before snacking.
