  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?

  I've done something similar using balti paste, garlic powder a touch of lemon juice and salt, and they tasted amazing!

  Interesting snack. The texture is crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, a little like a miniature roast-chestnut. They pack a punch with the chilli powder, but are a bit one-dimensional in taste. I will definitely be experimenting with flavours as for such a low far snack, they're great. We cooked at 170 for about 40mins (we had the oven on anyway roasting a chicken)

  Oven should be 200 for fan. Needs more chilli in my opinion but very tasty and a nice alternative to crisps and nuts.

  I put mine in for about 60 mins at 200oC, I kept opening the oven to check how they were doing though so that probably slowed the cooking process down. I used curry powder. Tasty! They don't last long though as they are quite addictive!

  These are great, i was looking for a snack option, love chick peas and always have them in the freezer so thought I'd give it a go. I tried these with hot chilli powder and cajun spice mixed together and after 25 min at 220decC on a sheet of baking paper and they came out well. I think the trick is to make sure they are spread flat in one layer on the baking tray. I tried freezing a handful and that worked so next time i will do a larger batch and freeze off a few.

  Good idea, but I personally didn't like the texture so I probably wouldn't make them again.

  Hi just wanted to know the oven settings as unable to find them. It looks a good recipe. I have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and this looks a good alternative to crisps and nuts. Thank you Pat
