Instructions
- Drain, rinse and pat chickpeas dry with a paper towel.
- Add chickpeas to a large mixing bowl with oil and salt and toss to combine. Move on to Step 3 if you’re making the basic sea salt version. For any of the other versions, add the additional seasonings and toss to combine, then move on to Step 3.
- Preheat air fryer if required. Place chickpeas in air fryer basket in a single layer and cook on 400°F for 12-14 minutes, tossing once halfway until golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on the chickpeas towards the end to make sure your seasonings don’t burn!
- Once chickpeas are cooked to your liking, remove them from the air fryer and season to taste. Serve immediately or let cool completely and store in a bowl, not covered.
Notes
- Storage: Let the chickpeas cool completely, then store them in an uncovered container at room temperature for up to a week. Avoid storing in the fridge to prevent them from becoming soft.
- Substitutions: Swap out the honey for maple syrup or agave syrup for a sweet vegan version. Just make sure to coat the chickpeas after air frying to keep them crispy!
