Looking for a healthy, protein-packed snack with a punch of bold flavor? These Crispy Roasted Black Chickpeas are just the thing. Naturally rich in fiber and nutrients, black chickpeas (also known as kala chana) have a deeper, earthier flavor than their golden counterparts, making them the perfect base for a smoky, spiced seasoning blend. In this recipe, we coat them with fragrant cumin, a touch of sea salt, and a touch of the bright, Basque-inspired flavor of Piment d’Ville before roasting them to crispy perfection. Whether you’re craving a wholesome snack, a crunchy salad topper, or a flavorful addition to grain bowls, these chickpeas deliver big on taste and texture. Plus, they’re easy to make and stay crispy for days!

Author:Lisa Riznikove
1 cup dry black garbanzo beans (chickpeas)
½ teaspoon Pacific Flake Sea Salt
Rinse the dry black chickpeas and soak them overnight in a large bowl with plenty of water. Drain and rinse, then transfer to a pot. Cover with fresh water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 45–60 minutes or until tender but still firm. (Or skip the soak: Rinse the dry beans, add to a pressure cooker with plenty of water to cover by an inch with a sprinkle of salt then cook on high for 30 minutes) Drain well and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, toss the chickpeas with olive oil, sea salt, Piment d'Ville, and cumin until evenly coated.
Let them cool completely—they will crisp up more as they cool. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
