Airfryer roasted chickpeas

Airfryer Roasted Chickpeas is a quick, delicious, healthy Vegan and Gluten Free snack to make anytime.

If there’s one thing that readers of this blog know, I am a fanatic for healthy, nutritious food for most meals. Wherever possible, I would like to convert a deep fried to healthy bakes, using more millets in place of rice, substitute all purpose flour with Gluten Free flours, and opt for non-sugar substitutes in baking like jaggery etc.

One of these days, the hubby was craving for snacks, and due to a recent health scare (yes, things do happen despite our best intentions) , he is off salt / pickles /papad / snacks etc. Food is also restricted in terms of eatables with respect to snacks / Main course etc. So I kept racking my brains for high protein, low carb / low salt snacks that can be made at home, easily and in a sustainable manner.

The oven Roasted Chickpeas was already on the blog, and as the oven is down for repairs, the next best thing – airfryer roasted chickpeas happened and was relished by all. 

Keep a big jar of this on the dining table (with under salting it), and you would find it empty in a day or two. Which is what happened to the Airfryer Roasted Chickpeas. Everyone is happy, and am smiling ear to ear for they were perfectly done.

    I have tried oven roasted chickpeas and it is a quilt free snack to enjoy any time. Must try out the recipe in an air fryer. Your roasted chickpeas have come out so well, look soft and yet crispy.

    • Thank you Mayuri. yes they come equally well in both the oven and airfryer, but I find the latter more convenient to check the ‘crispiness’ 🙂

    These chickpeas looks so tempting. I like the addition of chaat masala to add flavours to it. I make something similar in the Oven as it’s a quick snack which is full of protein.
