Ingredients

– 2 cups canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
– 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Creating your own Spiced Roasted Chickpeas Snack Mix is refreshingly easy. Just follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Chickpeas: Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
3. Mix Olive Oil and Spices: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, sea salt, black pepper, turmeric, and cinnamon. Mix well.
4. Coat the Chickpeas: Add the dried chickpeas to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
5. Spread on Baking Sheet: Arrange the seasoned chickpeas in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6. Roast in Oven: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-30 minutes. Shake the pan every 10 minutes to ensure even cooking.
7. Cool Down: Once golden and crunchy, remove from the oven and let the chickpeas cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
8. Add Nuts/Seeds: If you’re including mixed nuts or seeds, stir them into the chickpeas at this stage.
9. Store: Once completely cool, transfer the snack mix to an airtight container for storage.
