Air Fryer Chickpeas make a great snack. They are ready in less than 30 minutes. They are high in protein and healthy and can be flavored in many ways with different seasonings.
Preparation:
To cook:
Level: Easy
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 box (15 1/2 oz size) chickpeas, drained
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil, about 2-3 sprays from a Misto sprayer
- ½ teaspoon Salt (or salt to taste)
- ½ teaspoon Pepper, about 6-7 turns of the pepper mill
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon Cumin
Preparation
Preheat the air fryer to 390°F and set the time for 15 minutes.
Add the drained chickpeas to the air fryer basket. Cook for 5 minutes to dry the chickpeas. Open air fryer and spray the chickpeas a few times or coat them in oil if not using a sprayer.
Close the air fryer and cook, shaking the air fryer basket every 5 minutes. When there are 2 minutes left, open the air fryer and add half of the seasonings and shake the air fryer basket to distribute.
Close the air fryer and let the cooking finish to the desired doneness. Toss the chickpeas in the rest of the seasoning and enjoy.
Note: All air fryers are different, so if you want crispier chickpeas, cook them longer.
