- 1 (15 ounce/400g) can chickpeas
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat the Air Fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare Chickpeas: In a medium-sized bowl, toss the chickpeas with olive oil, paprika, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
- Cook Chickpeas: Place the chickpeas in the Air Fryer basket, and cook for 10 minutes shaking halfway through.
- Check Doneness: The chickpeas are done when they’re crunchy and no longer moist.
- Cool and Serve: Allow to cool, and eat at room temperature.
Notes
- If you’re using canned chickpeas, then drain them well for crunchier chickpeas. You can rinse them if you like, use a colander to do that.
- Shake the Air Fryer basket every 5 minutes.
- The longer you cook the chickpeas for, the crunchier they will be but be careful not to burn them.
- Feel free to change things up a little, and add different seasonings such as sweet paprika, curry powder, garlic powder, onion powder, herbs, etc.
