Week 12

Continuing with the Coronavirus miniseries of shelf stable snack ideas…

I bring you crispy roasted chickpeas, that stay crispy (the secret is to remove the skin).

Recipe

  • chickpeas (rinse and remove the skin of at least half but I did all for extra crunch)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Cook at 375°F for 45 to 60 minutes, shaking the pan every 15 minutes. I ended up cooking mine 40 since I took all the skins off, I really love how crunchy they turned out!

Who knew such a little bean could pack so much punch 🙃

The crispy part comes in by shelling the bean, this part was oddly satisfying.
