Scale:
Ingredients
- 1 14.5 ounce can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (or avocado oil)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 packet of stevia (1 gram, or sweetness equal to 2 teaspoons of sugar)
- 1 small pinch of salt
Instructions
- Use a paper towel to pat dry the rinsed and drained chickpeas. Remove any skins that come off while drying, or remove all skins if you wish.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Spread the chickpeas out on baking sheet lined with a Sil-Pat or parchment paper. Let them sit out to continue drying while the oven preheats.
- Place the chickpeas in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and stir to ensure even roasting. Return to oven and roast for another 15 minutes.
- After a total of 30 minutes roasting, remove chickpeas from the oven and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with cinnamon, stevia, and pinch of salt. Stir to ensure all chickpeas are evenly coated.
- Return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes. Taste a chickpea to determine if they are crispy enough for you.
- Return to the chickpeas to the oven and turn it off. Let the chickpeas sit in the oven with the door OPEN as the oven cools.
- Enjoy! The chickpeas are best when warm, and will stay perfectly crunchy for about a day. They begin to soften after that but remain tasty.
