Ingredients
- 1 can Chickpeas (Drain in a colander; rinse if desired and dry thoroughly.)
- 1 tsp Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper (To taste.)
Steps
- 1
Drain the chickpeas in a colander and make sure they are extra dry. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
- 2
Place the chickpeas in the air fryer and roast for 5 minutes to dry them out further.
- 3
Transfer the dried chickpeas to a mixing bowl. Add the olive oil and toss until evenly coated.
- 4
Return the chickpeas to the air fryer in an even layer and roast at 400°F for an additional 10 minutes. Shake the drawer or rotate the racks halfway through, depending on your air-fryer model.
- 5
Check the chickpeas once they are crispy. If necessary, roast them for additional time, since cooking times may vary by air-fryer model.
- 6
Transfer the crispy chickpeas to a bowl. Add the grated Parmesan, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper, then toss to coat.
- 7
Return the seasoned chickpeas to the air fryer for 2–3 minutes so the Parmesan can crisp slightly and adhere to the chickpeas.
- 8
Serve the chickpeas on their own as a snack, over salads, in Buddha bowls, or as desired.
Notes
For an oven version, preheat the oven to 400°F. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, pat them dry with a paper towel, toss with olive oil, and transfer them to a lined baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until they begin to brown. Toss with the Parmesan and spices, then bake for another 5–10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the chickpeas are crispy. Cool completely before storing in an airtight container for 2–3 days; do not refrigerate, as they will become chewy. Depending on the air-fryer model, the chickpeas may need to be cooked in batches. The source notes that seasonings can be varied, with smoked paprika suggested as an alternative or addition.
