Ingredients

  • 2 cans of chickpeas
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp mixed herbs rosemary, thyme, and oregano work well
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Air-fryer method

  • Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then add to a medium-sized mixing bowl and add in the olive oil and seasonings. Stir well to combine using a spatula, ensuring all chickpeas are well coated.
  • Divide and cook in two batches in the air-fryer at 200°C for 15-20 minutes, stirring once at the 10-minute mark.
  • You may hear some popping while they're cooking which is totally normal. They're done once they're golden brown and crispy al the way through.
  • Serve while warm and store in an air-tight jar once cooled to preserve crispiness.

Oven method

  • Pre-heat your oven to 200°C.
  • Drain and rinse chickpeas, then pat dry using a clean dish towel.
  • Add chickpeas to a medium-sized mixing bowl along with the olive oil and seasonings. Stir well to combine using a spatula, ensuring all chickpeas are well coated.
  • Transfer to a baking tray and bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so to avoid burning.
