Ingredients

Spicy roasted chickpeas

  • 1 can chickpeas (14oz
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika 
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper 
  • 1/2 tsp salt 
  • 1/2 tsp pepper  
  • 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil 

Chili lime roasted chickpeas 

  • 1 can chickpeas (14oz
  • 1 tbsp lime zest
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin 
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil 

Sweet and salty roasted chickpeas 

  • 1 can chickpeas (140z) 
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup 
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt 
  • 1 1/2 tbsp oil 

Directions

  1. For the spicy roasted chickpeas and chili lime roasted chickpeas: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking pan with parchment paper. Pat the chickpeas dry with a paper towel then toss in a bowl with the seasoning. Spread the chickpeas on the baking pan and bake for 35-45 minutes until golden brown and crispy. 
  2. *For the sweet and salty roasted chickpeas: Place the plain chickpeas in the oven to roast for 25 minutes, then remove and toss with the seasoning and place them back in the oven for 15 minutes. (*I find the maple syrup or sugar-coating can sometimes burn in the oven, so this will prevent that from happening!) 

Notes

  • Make sure to really pat your chickpeas dry before seasoning. This will help them get nice and crispy! 
  • Spread the chickpeas out evenly on your baking sheet so that none of them are touching. 
  • If you take your chickpeas out of the oven and realize they are not crispy and crunchy enough, simply put them back in the oven for another 5-10 minutes. (keep an eye on them so they don’t burn!)  
  • Using parchment paper on your pan will help reduce your clean-up time!
  • Store in an airtight container on your countertop for up to 2 weeks. 

*Nutrition information is a rough estimate for all 3 variations. The sweet and salty variation will have an additional 3g of sugar per serving.
