Notes
Storage: The roasted chickpeas can be stored in a container for around 4 days at room temperature. Be sure to crack open the container slightly since the air helps them stay crisp.
Freezing Instructions: Allow the chickpeas to cool completely, then place in an airtight container for up to a month. Thaw at room temperature.
