Ingredients

2 cups chickpeas (cooked or canned and drained)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried chilli powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
fresh pepper to taste

Optional-2 teaspoons melted coconut oil

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with baking paper.
Add the chickpeas to a large bowl.
If using, drizzle the coconut oil over the chickpeas and toss. If making an oil-free version skip to the next step.
Spread the spices evenly over the chickpeas and toss. Some of the spices will stick to the sides of the bowl, try and scrape as much out as your can with a spatula. Transfer to the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, remove from the oven and shake them around and return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes. Keep an eye on them so they don’t burn.
Remove from the oven and let cook for 5-10 minutes! Enjoy.

NOTES

Without oil the chickpeas won’t get as crispy. Instead they will be a little chewy, which is also tasty!
As these pizza chickpeas cool completely they will soften a little more.
Store in a glass container on your counter. They will keep this way for about 3 days. Otherwise, store in your fridge for up to 5-7 days.
Add ¼-½ cup to leafy green or grain salads for extra oomph!
