Honey Cinnamon Roasted Chickpeas
15 oz. can garbanzo beans (or 2 C. cooked chickpeas)
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 T. granulated sugar
2 tsp. vegetable oil
1 T. honey
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees F). Drain and rinse garbanzo beans, running them under cool water for several minutes to clean off the starch. You may optionally remove the skins from the beans (it does take a few minutes) or you can leave them on—it’s your personal preference. Dry off the beans. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, cinnamon, and sugar. Place beans in bowl and stir until evenly coated. Spread out the beans on a large baking sheet and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until beans are crunchy and no longer soft in the middle. Test taste every few minutes until desired texture is reached. Place hot, roasted beans in a small bowl and coat evenly with honey. Spread beans back out on baking sheet and allow to dry. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
