We love to snack in the evening, but we also need to keep an eye on our fat intake, so this is a less fat alternative to roasted peanuts.

This is my spice drawer, yes it is a mess, but it is my lovely mess of flavours. I have labeled everything on the lid so I don't have to roam too much to find what I'm looking for. 😝

Step 2 of 6

See the supply tab for which spices I used. Use what ever spices that takes your fancy. Preheat your oven to 400°F/200°C

Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Pat them dry. Remove the skin or not, it is up to you.

Step 4 of 6

Mix your spices with the oil and add chickpeas, toss to coat.

Step 5 of 6

Place chickpeas on a baking sheet and bake for 35-40 minutes, stir occasionally until chickpeas are brown and crisp. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Dear Ben. Sorry for not answering you before now. Try to add a bit of sugar to your spice mix. Play with the flavours and make your mouth happy.

Karen Larard (author) last month

Awesome! What's a good replacement for Honey flavoured spice? Can't find it.

Dear Toni sounds like a very good idea.

Karen Larard (author) 3 months ago

I'm making these now - they're still cooking but I'm cheating a little and tasting as they go. I like them very much - but I think I'm going to try adding a little Cholula sauce to the oil mixture next time for some extra heat!

Toni Foselli 3 months ago

Dear Beth. I like hot and spicy too. I'm still amazed by all the different tastes in chills, but boy have I burned my mouth trying them out😛🔥

Karen Larard (author) 4 months ago

I tried them with rosemary and garlic the last time I made them (also salt and pepper) and they were good. I do like the curry or creole seasoned ones best but I like the hot, spicy snacks. The rosemary and garlic were nice and savory.

Beth Wood 4 months ago

Thanks karen!! Ill let u know what i do!!

Kat Goodrich 10 months ago

Dear Kat just try with spices you like, only think on which is the strongest and then use a small amount of that spice so it does not overpower less strong ones. There are no rules.

Karen Larard (author) 10 months ago

Mmm i luv curry!! Thanks for the idea! I have trouble with choosing which spices go well together sometimes 

Be first to comment on Step 1.

Dear Mika I use what I got. Chilli is nice and so is curry. I have tried with barbecue spices alone but the pees need some strong zing to sing in your mouth.

Karen Larard (author) 9 months ago

You didn't remove the skins from the chickpeas, right? Thx!

Marina Gonzales Piperidis 6 months ago

Dear Lau sounds really nice. I like the plain and simple salt and pepper. I'll try garlic as soon as possible, why didn't I think of that? Thank you for the feed back.

Karen Larard (author) 4 months ago

Turned out great. I used salt & pepper on some, garlic powder on some, and chili powder on some. I made a batch with 2 cans. Wonderful!!
