Crunchy Spiced Chickpeas
A crisp, protein-rich snack inspired by Moroccan flavors
Why This Recipe Works
These spiced chickpeas are a fantastic alternative to roasted nuts and bridge the gap between a snack and a salad topper. Roasting them at a moderate temperature ensures they dry out enough to achieve a satisfying crunch without burning the delicate spices.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
Toss the chickpeas with olive oil, curry powder, paprika, salt, and sugar in a mixing bowl until every chickpea is evenly coated in spices.
Spread the chickpeas across the prepared baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes, until they are golden brown and feel light and crispy.
Serve while still warm and crackling for the best texture.
