Ingredients
Scale
- 2 –14 oz cans garbanzo beans (drained, rinsed and dried)
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp chipotle chili powder (you can also use regular chili powder)

Instructions
- Empty cans of garbanzo beans into colander, rinse well with cold water and allow to drain. Empty onto paper towel and pat dry.
- Place beans in large bowl and stir in olive oil to coat.
- Combine spices in a small bowl (this prevents to much of one spice from sticking to one bean). You may adjust the spices to taste.
- Sprinkle beans with spices and stir to coat.
- Place beans on a cookie sheet covered in parchment paper.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, stir. Bake for another 10 minutes, stir and check for crispness. Continue baking for 5 minute increments until beans are done. They should be crisp, but still slightly chewy and not hard.
