Revising this Curry Roasted Chickpeas Recipe today. Oh So Dr. Google can Find it when People Search for Recipes with Garbanzo Beans or Chickpeas.

Ingredients:
- Two 15oz cans of Garbanzo Beans
- Olive oil – 2 tbsp
- Cayenne pepper powder – 1 tsp
- Chili flakes – 1 tsp (optional, but super duper delish)
- Black pepper powder – 1 tsp
- Cumin powder – 1 tsp
- Coriander powder – 1tsp
- Garam masala powder – 1/2 tsp
- Turmeric Powder – 1 tsp
- Sea salt (to taste)
Directions:
- Rinse the canned garbanzo beans and drain to get rid of the salty liquid its canned in. Rinse and drain it a few times.
- Toss the rinsed Garbanzo beans and all other ingredients in a large mixing bowl and combine everything. Take a taste. I load mine up with extra cayenne pepper because I love hot and spicy foods!
- Spread a thin layer of the chickpeas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Would work without parchment paper too. Parchment paper makes cleanup a breeze.
- Heat oven to 350 F and cook for about 30 minutes. Check at 20, 25 -minute marks to toss and rotate in order to get an even crunch on all sides.
- If cooking in Airfryer reduce the cooking times by half. Just check at 10 minutes to flip and turn, and cook another five minutes or so. You will know its done when it’s all browned and crunchy.
Serve as a snack immediately. Pack for midday work snack. Or take these Curry Roasted Chickpeas Snacks for a hike to fuel up midway, without losing all of the calorie burning benefits of the hike!
