Ingredients
  

  • 1 can 15 oz chickpeas
  • 1 tsp spice of choice total, see notes
  • 1-2 Tbsp grapeseed oil
  • pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Drain and rinse chickpeas. Pat dry with towel, then place into a bowl.
  • 2. Toss with oil and spices until well coated, then pour onto lined baking sheet for easy cleanup. 
  • 3. Roast for 20-25 minutes, remove from oven and let steam escape. Toss gently, then bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until crispy.
  • 4. Add salt AT THE END before serving, ideally once cool. Enjoy!

Notes

Spices: you'll want about 1 tsp total...so if you want to do a mixture, try a quarter or half teaspoon of each. 
Zataar, cumin, paprika, cayenne, coriander, and cardamom are all great spices for roasted chickpeas.
