Equipment
- Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 1.5 cup garbanzo beans / chickpeas; cooked 15 oz can
- 1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil extra virgin
- 1/2 tsp Himalayan sea salt finely ground
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Drain and discard of aquafaba water.
- Remove the skin from each chickpea. I've found squeezing lightly on the corner of them allows it to pop off easily. Discard of the skins.
- Add the chickpeas to a sandwich ziplock bag.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the chickpeas and sprinkle the remaining ingredients on top.
- Seal the bag and shake for about 10 seconds to coat them.
AIR FRY INSTRUCTIONS
- Air fry on the "fries" setting. 20 minutes at 450°. Remove the pan to shake at the 10 minute point, and then return back to the air fryer.
- Remove and allow to cool and they will firm up a bit. ENJOY!!
Baking Instructions (alternative method)
- Bake at 400° for 40 minutes. Remove the pan to shake and check for browning at the 20 minute point, and then return back to the oven.
