When measuring honey, lightly spray the cup with non-stick spray, then pour the honey in the cup. This will help the honey slide right out, leaving you with less mess and a better measurement.

Roasted Honey Glazed Chickpeas Recipe

Roasted Honey Glazed Chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
Ingredients
- 1 15 ounce can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed*
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup mild honey**
- 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Lightly spray a 1-quart shallow baking dish with non-stick spray or use a well seasoned cast iron skillet. In a small bowl, combine all ingredients except salt, mixing well. Place in the prepared dish.
- Bake, uncovered, until toasted and darkened in color, about 45 to 60 minutes, stirring once after 30 minutes. Remove from oven, stir, and sprinkle with salt, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Recipe Notes
Cook's notes: *Rinse the beans until all the white foam is gone and the water runs clear. This foam is sodium, and by rinsing well you can rinse off much of the sodium.
**When measuring honey, lightly spray the cup with non-stick spray, then pour the honey in the cup. This will help the honey slide right out, leaving you with less mess and a better measurement.

What a great roasted chickpea recipe! With the cinnamon and honey it’s kind of festive for this time of year. Thanks for the cook’s notes!

Not only does this look like such a tasty way to use garbanzos, but you have also completely blown my mind with that tip for measuring honey! I usually just make a sticky mess and I feel like such a dummy now haha!

The foam is not sodium. The foam is sugars!
Great recipe I’m going to try it tomorrow as a study break/ study snack!

These look lovely! I adore roasted chickpeas, so easy and great flavor payoff, but they’re also one of those sides that I always forget about! Next time I have a get together I’ll try out this sweet version, yum.

judy says
Can you store this outside and if yes for how long? or does it have to be refrigerated? Thanks
Debi says
Every time I’ve made it I’ve eaten it within a day, so I’ve left it at room temperature with no problems. I think it would do fine for a day or two at room temp in a tightly covered container, though you’ll probably lose some of the crunchiness. Longer than that, I’d recommend the fridge.

I’ve never made chickpeas at home before, partially because I was never really sure how to cook them. I don’t have any excuse now! Thanks for sharing!!
