Hello, friends! I have a new recipe for you this week. Only it really isn't a dinner recipe, it's a snack. And don't worry if you don't like chickpeas (or garbanzo beans as some call them). You will like these, I promise.
I saw this recipe on the vlog "Shelly's Home Life" and knew I had to try them. Then when I was given a can of chickpeas I was SURE I had to try to make them. So here's what I did.
Take a can of chickpeas.
Drain them and rinse them in cold water.
Place the drained chickpeas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silpat.
Bake at 450* for 30 minutes.
Transfer to a mixing bowl.
Stir together 2 teaspoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon 1-1/2 teaspoons of brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon of sugar or sugar substitute in a small bowl.
Add to the roasted chickpeas and stir together.
Enjoy hot or cold as a snack.
Store in a covered container at room temperature.
These are good the day you make them, but will store 3 or 4 days. I had to make myself stop eating them. I could eat the entire thing in one sitting. These are going to be my new go to snack.
(I had a video here of Shelly making them, but it has been removed.)
One thing I noticed is once I put them in the jar and sealed it, the warm chick peas began to soften. Next time I will leave them open until they are completely cool so that they stay crisp.
I hope you try this. Enjoy!
Kathy
I don’t know... 😄
ReplyDeleteIt tastes a lot like kettle corn.
DeleteSounds interesting... However I don't cook/bake like you do so have almost none
ReplyDeleteof the ingredients listed. I miss more recipes that way :( Sounds good though.
That's something I've never eaten! Sounds like a healthy snack!
ReplyDeleteI have never eaten them either, but am sure they are good.

ReplyDeleteHmm...interesting!
ReplyDeleteI like to make hummus with them.
I'm a big fan of hummus.
DeleteI hate chick peas, but I've learned to love garlic hummus so you never know!
ReplyDeleteThese look yummy, and I always have cans of chick peas in the pantry. I will definitely be giving them a try.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I'd like them. I buy roasted chickpeas when I see them at a discount store....they are way too expensive at an regular grocery. Thanks for sharing!
