Ingredients

  • 1 (15oz) can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ tsp za’atar
  • ½  tsp sweet paprika
  • ½  tsp cumin
  • ½  tsp Kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • tsp coriander

Instructions

  • Season the chickpeas. Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Drain, rinse, and dry chickpeas, then place in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with 1 Tbsp olive oil, ½ tsp each of za'atar, sweet paprika, cumin, and Kosher salt, ¼ tsp ground cinnamon, and ⅛ tsp ground coriander. Toss to evenly coat, then pour onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure chickpeas are in an even single layer.
  • Roast for chickpeas for 25-30 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through cook time.Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Notes

  • Extra crunch: Skip the parchment paper and bake directly on the sheet pan for crispier edges.
  • Best the day of: They’ll become chewier as they sit, so enjoy them the same day for maximum crunch.
  • Serve anywhere: Snack on them as-is, use in place of croutons, add to salads or pasta, or serve alongside a cheese board — endless possibilities.
