jeffraben.com/recipes · No. 218
These crunchy chickpeas will serve you well as both a snack and a crunchy, protein-filled topping for salads. They'll stay crisp in an airtight container for up to a week; bake them until they're just shy of burning for the crunchiest result.
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Spread chickpeas on several layers of paper towels, and pat dry. Spread in an even layer on a small rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with oil, and shake pan to coat. Bake at 400°F 30 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven. Sprinkle chickpeas evenly with paprika, salt, and cayenne pepper; stir well. Return to oven, and bake at 400°F until chickpeas are very crisp and crunchy (but not burned), 15 to 20 minutes.
- Cool completely; store in an airtight container up to 1 week.
