Easy Oven Roasted Chickpeas

Easy Oven-Roasted Chickpeas are a healthy plant-based snack that is quick, easy to make, and super fun to eat! Made with canned chickpeas, the flavor variations are endless—you can make them savory, sweet, or spicy. I love them as a snack or a salad topper, and they're also delicious sprinkled over soups, dips, and spreads.

Ingredients

  • 1 15-ounce can garbanzo beans 240 g or 1.5 cups, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread the chickpeas on a clean dish towel and pat them dry. The drier, the better!

  • Place the dried chickpeas into a medium bowl and season with avocado oil, salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Toss to coat the chickpeas with the oil and spices.

  • Transfer the seasoned chickpeas onto a small rimmed baking sheet (I recommend using a 1/4 sheet pan).

  • Pop in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Ovens vary, so the chickpeas may need more or less time. Set aside to cool. Set aside to cool.

Notes

Flavor variations: Once the chickpeas come out of the oven, you can add even more flavor with these delicious combinations.
  • Want something warm and cozy? Sprinkle on some curry powder.
  • Do you like things spicy? Try a combination of smoked paprika and cayenne pepper.
  • If you're in the mood for something sweet, how about a combination of brown sugar and cinnamon - I always omit the black pepper and garlic for this one (I love this combo sprinkled over a yogurt or cottage cheese bowl).
  • Italian lover? Finish with grated Parmesan cheese, onion powder, and dried basil.
