Baked Chickpeas

Roasted Chickpeas in the oven!! a delicious snack recipe that I recently came across, while searching for some savory snacks for parties. I cook Chickpeas in typical North Indian style like Chole Masala, Pindi Chole or use it in my Spinach Kabuli Chana Pulao.

Hummus is another family favourite with chips or Falafel bites. My kids also love Chole-Chaat a snack made with Chole Masala, papdi(deep-fried flatbreads) with tangy and spicy chutneys.

Reasons to bake make and keep a batch of Roasted Chickpeas ready in your pantry

  • Homemade is the best
  • Budget friendly
  • Free from preservative
  • Amount of oil/fat used can be controlled
  • Bake a big batch and flavour small batches with different spices flavours
  • These are Vegan, Gluten-free and so delicious!!

Seasonings used for Baked/Roasted Chickpeas

I seasoned the baked chickpeas only with salt, red chilli powder and dried parsley and enjoyed with our evening tea. Kids liked it too and have asked me to make again for their lunchboxes. To make these healthy, nutritious snack very little oil and a minimum of spices are used.

You can season it with any spices that your choice like Chaat Masala or Curry powder. These taste great with Cajun Spice mix, Italian Seasoning or Zaatar seasoning

How to make Oven Roasted Chickpeas

Pre-boiled chickpeas are used for making these baked chickpeas. I used one can of the store bought boiled chickpeas. You can use more than one as per your requirement.

Few tips that one should keep in mind while baking Chickpeas to get the right crunch...

  • Drain the liquid completely from the chickpeas.
  • Dry the chickpeas completely on a clean kitchen towel or tissue paper.
  • Toss the chickpeas in 1-2 tsp of oil depending on the quantity of chickpeas used.
  • Keep on tossing the chickpeas after every 15 minutes.
  • Season the chickpeas with salt only while putting to bake. Season with other spices once these are done.
  • These taste best when fresh and warm. You can make ahead, store in an air-tight container and toast in oven for few minutes before serving.

You can also use home cooked chickpeas. Use your Instant Pot or Stove-top pressure cook to boil it.
