Roasted chickpeas are a great protein-packed snack but who wants to wait 45 minutes or longer to roast them when the craving for a crunchy snack hits? Thanks to the air fryer you can be munching away in just 10 minutes. We’ve used five spice powder here which is a combination of warm spices like star anise, clove, and cinnamon, but you can easily swap it out for chili powder, curry powder, or salt-free Cajun seasoning. Aside from snacking on them, try sprinkling them over salads in lieu of croutons.
