Ingredients
1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 cup raw almonds
1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat chickpeas dry with a clean towel, removing any loose skins.
In a bowl, combine chickpeas, almonds, pumpkin seeds, olive oil, maple syrup, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Toss to coat evenly.
Spread mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until chickpeas are crunchy and nuts are lightly toasted.
Let cool completely on the baking sheet; mixture will continue to crisp as it cools.
Tips
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
For extra crunch, remove chickpea skins before roasting.
Customize with your favorite spices like cumin or chili powder.
