Crunchy Spicy Roasted Chickpeas

35 min180 kcal

Crunchy oven-roasted chickpeas seasoned with paprika and cumin — a high-protein snack that beats any bag of chips.

Ingredients

  • 1 can (400 g) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Pat the chickpeas completely dry with a kitchen towel — the drier they are, the crunchier they become.
  3. Toss the chickpeas with olive oil and all the spices in a bowl.
  4. Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on the baking tray.
  5. Roast for 25–30 minutes, shaking the tray halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  6. Let cool for 5 minutes before eating.

Tip

Store in an airtight container at room temperature — they stay crunchy for 2 days.
