Instructions

  1. Drain, rinse and pat chickpeas dry with a paper towel.
  2. 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.
  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!
  4. 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!
