Ingredients
Method

- Toss chickpeas in olive oil, salt, and your chosen spices.
- Spread evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Roast for 25–35 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through. Chickpeas should be golden and crisp.
- Cool completely before storing. This helps maintain crunch and reduces moisture buildup
