Crunchy Roasted Garbanzos
Ingredients
- 1 15 oz. can garbanzo beans, thoroughly drained, rinsed and dried
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Drain, rinse and dry garbanzos. Remove any garbanzo "skins" that have come loose in the washing process (they will roast quickly and burn).
- Place garbanzos in a medium bowl and mix with the remaining ingredients. (I like to actually place the garganzos in a large ziplock bag and add remaining ingredients and shake to evenly coat the garbonzos with spices and olive oil).
- Spread the garbanzos in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and place in preheated 400F oven until crisp and golden brown (approx. 30-40 min) you may want to give the garbanzos a little shake or stir during the cooking process to make sure they are browning evenly.
Eat: Pop..Crunch..Repeat!
