Honey CINNAMON Roasted Chickpeas!
I am ALWAYS looking for a "healthier" crunchy snack. It's just something about that crunch. I have tried to roast chickpeas before-but they never came out right! I finally broke down and bought some from the store, they were incredible!!! After I finished the bag- I decided I was DETERMINED. I set out to Pinterest to find tips or tricks, SOMETHING needed to be different. I found this AWESOME recipe and found out that the missing step was RINSING, removing loose skin AND letting dry on a paper towel for AT LEAST 30 minutes. They came out great and I'm currently making a double back to have as a healthy snack on vacation!
Here's the recipe I am using!!
Honey Cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 TBL granulated sugar
- 2 TBL honey
Instructions
- Drain and rinse your chickpeas. Remove any loose skins off of the beans but don't worry about taking them all off. Just remove the ones that are super loose.
- On a paper towel or towel, evenly spread your beans and let dry. I dried mine for about ½ hour.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Line a cookie sheet with either foil or parchment paper.
- Evenly spread your dried beans on cookie sheet
- Bake for 40-60 minutes. It will all depend on your oven. Check after 40 minutes and if they are crunchy, they are done. If they are too moist then cook a little longer but watch so they don't burn.
- After baking, quickly transfer to a bowl and mix with the 2 TBL olive oil or coconut oil.
- Then spread the seasonings of whatever flavor you are using and mix well.
- With the honey cinnamon flavor, after coating, you can put the beans back into the oven for 5 minutes or so to caramelize them.
ENJOY!!! <3
