Great as a picky snack, even greater as a topping on bowls and salads.

Storage Tip

Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days to maintain their crunchiness.

Spice Variation

Experiment with different spices like curry powder or Italian herbs for a unique twist.

Serving Suggestion

These crispy chickpeas make a great addition to soups or as a salad topping.

Notes

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Toss well to ensure the chickpeas are evenly coated with the spice mixture.

Spread the seasoned chickpeas in a single layer in the air fryer basket.

Cook the chickpeas in the air fryer for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Once crispy and golden brown, remove from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.

Serve immediately as a snack or a delicious topping for salads.
