I loveee to add crunch to every meal to create another layer of texture and elevate the taste sensation. Crunchy chickpeas are a perfect way to add a healthy, protein-rich crunch to salads, soups, and curries. Or you could just eat them as a snack. As a bonus, they are very easy to make!

Ingredients

For 4 servings

  • 1 can of chickpeas
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil
  • Herbs and/or spices, depending on the matching dish. For inspiration, you can have a look at my favorite mixes below. 

Herby flavors: 

  • 1 tsp of rosemary (fresh or dried)
  • 1 tsp of thyme (fresh or dried)
  • 1 tsp of garlic powder

Spicy flavor:

  • 1/2 tsp of chili powder
  • 1 tsp of paprika powder
  • 1 tsp of cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp of coriander powder

Directions

Heat the oven to 180 degrees Celcius. Drain the chickpeas and dry the chickpeas as well as you can. Spread them on a baking tray with some baking paper. Sprinkle the olive oil and herbs and/or spices on top. Bake in the oven for 20-30 min until they have the perfect level of crunchiness of your liking.

Serve with your meal or eat as a delicious snack. Enjoy!
