Crispy Roasted Chickpeas

Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or leave unlined for extra crispness. 2. After rinsing, spread the chickpeas on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and pat dry. For best results, let them air dry for a few minutes too. Remove any loose skins if you’d like (optional). 3. Spread chickpeas on the baking sheet (without oil or seasonings) in a single layer and roast for 25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through. 4. Remove the chickpeas from the oven, place them in a bowl, and toss with the oil and any spices you’re using. 5. Return seasoned chickpeas to the pan and roast for another 5–10 minutes, until golden and crispy. 6. Let chickpeas cool on the pan. They’ll crisp up even more as they cool. 7. Enjoy them as a snack, or add them to salads, bowls, and soups for a crunchy, protein-packed topping.
