    We tried these the other day and really liked them, although they needed slightly longer to get really crispy. You could really play around with the flavours using other ground spices.

    I put them on 180c fan and they were still slightly soggy :( But they tasted really nice otherwise so I think I'll make them again and try with some other flavours.

    I made half with chilli powder and half with cajun seasoning. They were nice but I'd prefer peanuts any day!!

    Love these! I tend to do a tin every 4 days and then divide them into 4 portions, I thought the 1tbsp of chilli powder was a bit too spicy for my taste but I've tried many other variations of spices so this is definitely a snack that doesn't get boring! For those who want to know about oven temp - I put them on for about half an hour at 190 (fan oven).

    Delicious ^_^ Used dried chickpeas as had some in the cupboard, hours more prep time but have been looking for some uses for them and this was a great way to use them up, will be making these a few more times then moving on to the canned variety! Wondering how long these will last in an air-tight container? Doubt they'll last long enough to find out, but would be good to know

    Yummy! A great low fat snack. They are very morish. I'm going to try barbeque seasoning and maybe paprika, cajun?
