Ingredients

  • 1 can (16 ounces / 425 g) chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a small rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Drain and rinse chickpeas thoroughly.
  3. Spread chickpeas on a clean towel and pat completely dry. Rub gently to remove loose skins.
  4. Allow chickpeas to air dry 20–30 minutes for extra crispiness if time permits.
  5. In a bowl, toss chickpeas with melted coconut oil, honey, cinnamon, and salt until evenly coated.
  6. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  7. Bake 25–30 minutes, shaking pan every 10 minutes, until golden and crisp.
  8. Cool completely before serving; they will crisp further as they cool.

Notes

  • Dry chickpeas thoroughly for best crunch.
  • Removing skins improves texture but is optional.
  • Store loosely covered at room temperature; avoid sealing while warm.
  • Reheat at 375°F (190°C) for 5–8 minutes if they soften.
  • Do not refrigerate, as moisture will reduce crispiness.
