Recipe View Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. The chickpeas will crisp up even more as they cool.

For extra crispy chickpeas, pat them very dry with a paper towel before tossing with the spices.
Experiment with different spice combinations! Try smoked paprika, curry powder, or even a touch of cinnamon for a unique flavor profile.
Store leftover roasted chickpeas in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They may lose some of their crispness over time.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mixture.
