Baked Chickpeas

This is a fun, healthy snack. I'm looking forward to playing with the spice mixture to get it just right.


3 cans chickpeas
1 1/2 T olive oil
2 t sugar
1 1/2 t ground cumin
1 1/2 t paprika
1 t cayenne pepper
1/2 t garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Drain, rinse, and dry (using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels) the chickpeas. Mix chickpeas, olive oil, and spices together in a bowl. Place the seasoned chickpeas on a cookie sheet and cook 40-60 minutes, mixing about halfway through.
