Instructions

1

Prep the Chickpeas

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly then spread them on a clean kitchen towel and pat completely dry. The drier the chickpeas are the crunchier the final result will be.

2

Season the Chickpeas

Transfer the dry chickpeas to a mixing bowl and toss with olive oil garlic powder Italian seasoning and sea salt until every chickpea is evenly coated.

3

Roast Until Crispy

Spread the seasoned chickpeas in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 to 35 minutes shaking the pan halfway through until they are golden brown and crispy throughout.

4

Add Parmesan and Cool

Remove the chickpeas from the oven and immediately toss them with the grated parmesan cheese while they are still hot so it adheres. Allow them to cool on the pan for 10 minutes before eating as they continue to crisp as they cool.

Substitutions

finely grated parmesan cheesenutritional yeast for a vegan dairy-free cheesy flavor
olive oilavocado oil which has a higher smoke point and neutral flavor

Common mistakes

Not drying the chickpeas thoroughly enough before roasting which steams them instead of crisping them
Removing the chickpeas from the oven too early before they are fully dried out resulting in a chewy rather than crunchy texture
