Ingredients
 

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the chickpeas out on paper towels. Gently rub them dry, removing loose skins.
  • Place the chickpeas in a large mixing bowl. Add olive oil and toss to coat.
  • In a small bowl, stir together smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, salt, and black pepper.
  • Sprinkle the spice mix over the chickpeas. Toss until chickpeas are evenly coated.
  • Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Roast for 30 to 35 minutes. Shake the pan every 10 minutes so they roast evenly.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet. Chickpeas will crisp up more as they cool.
  • Serve once cooled, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Notes

Tips and Tricks

Getting Extra Crispy Chickpeas - Pat the chickpeas as dry as possible before roasting. Removing the skins helps them crisp up more in the oven.
Roasting Evenly - Shake the pan every 10 minutes during roasting. This keeps the chickpeas from burning and helps them cook evenly.
Serving Ideas - Enjoy as a snack or toss on salads for a crunchy topping.

Storing

Store in Airtight Container - Keep roasted chickpeas in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
