Ingredients:
- 1 cup chickpeas
- Water
- Salt

- Chili powder (optional)
- Garlic powder (optional)
Instructions:
- Soak the chickpeas in water overnight or for at least 6 hours.
- Transfer the chickpeas to a pressure cooker and pressure cook for 3 whistles.

- Spread the chickpeas on a baking tray and bake for 60 minutes. Open the oven and toss the chickpeas after 50 minutes.
- The chickpeas are done when they are completely crunchy, which could take anywhere from 15 to 60 minutes. Look for a few to be slightly browned or black.
- Let the chickpeas cool and enjoy!
Tips:
- You can use canned chickpeas instead of dried chickpeas to save time.
- The video mentions that the chickpeas are oil-free, but they do use olive oil to coat the chickpeas before baking. You can adjust the amount of olive oil depending on your preference.
