Roasted Garbanzo Beans

I made these for a delicious healthy snack to nibble on during the Bear’s game tonight! Over the weekend I soaked and cooked a bunch of dried garbanzo beans in preparation for this recipe, but you can just as easily use canned beans for convenience.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups garbanzo beans
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp spice mixture
  • 1 tsp salt

The spice mixture is a combination of:

  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground allspice
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/8 tsp ground cloves

Combine beans, oil, salt and spices in large bowl. Stir to coat. Spread on baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes. Allow to cool a bit on pan to increase crispiness. Sprinkle with a pinch more of salt if desired. Eat plain or combined with your favorite nuts or snack mix!
