Crispy Roasted Chickpeas
I’ve always had a thing for crunchy snacks that you can munch on straight from the bowl. And chickpeas? I love them in every form, whether they’re blended into a hummus, stewed in curries, or tossed into Mediterranean salads.
Roasted and crispy, though, that’s one of my favorite ways to enjoy them as a snack! This recipe starts with a humble can of chickpeas (or two) and ends with a hot oven, transforming your chickpeas into golden brown, spiced bites of perfection.
They’re one of my go-to snacks, but I’ll share some ideas for what else you can do with your new favorite crunchy treat.
