A healthy crunchy holiday treat! Four simple ingredients and your home smells amazing!

Scale:

Ingredients

  • 1 14.5 ounce can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (or avocado oil)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 packet of stevia (1 gram, or sweetness equal to 2 teaspoons of sugar)
  • 1 small pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Use a paper towel to pat dry the rinsed and drained chickpeas. Remove any skins that come off while drying, or remove all skins if you wish.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  3. Spread the chickpeas out on baking sheet lined with a Sil-Pat or parchment paper. Let them sit out to continue drying while the oven preheats.
  4. Place the chickpeas in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and stir to ensure even roasting. Return to oven and roast for another 15 minutes.
  5. After a total of 30 minutes roasting, remove chickpeas from the oven and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with cinnamon, stevia, and pinch of salt. Stir to ensure all chickpeas are evenly coated.
  6. Return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes. Taste a chickpea to determine if they are crispy enough for you.
  7. Return to the chickpeas to the oven and turn it off. Let the chickpeas sit in the oven with the door OPEN as the oven cools.
  8. Enjoy! The chickpeas are best when warm, and will stay perfectly crunchy for about a day. They begin to soften after that but remain tasty.
