Ingredients
1 can (400g) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp turmeric powder
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Prepare the chickpeas: Pat the chickpeas dry with a clean kitchen towel to ensure they crisp up in the oven.
Season them up: In a bowl, toss the chickpeas with olive oil, turmeric, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Bake to perfection: Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on the baking tray. Bake for 25–30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden and crispy.
Cool and enjoy: Let the chickpeas cool completely before eating. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days (if they last that long!).
