Ingredients

• One 15-oz. can chickpeas/garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
• 1/4 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• Optional spices: chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.

Thoroughly pat dry the rinsed beans. Discard any skins that were removed while drying.

Place beans on the baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes.

Rearrange beans on the sheet, either with a spatula or by gently shaking the sheet (use an oven mitt!). Bake until browned, 15 - 25 minutes.

Transfer beans to a medium bowl. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt and any optional spices. Toss to coat.

Let cool for a crispier snack, or enjoy warm!
