Ingredients

Scale

1 15 oz. can of Chickpeas, drained but not rinsed
2 tsp Nutritional Yeast
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1 tbsp Buffalo Hot Sauce (not Wing Sauce)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 360F.
Drain your can of Chickpeas, but do not rinse them. Add them to a Medium Sized Bowl, then sprinkle the Cornstarch and Nutritional Yeast over the top of them. Mix Well.
Once the Chickpeas are evenly coated in the “breading”, add the Buffalo Hot Sauce to the bowl and mix until well-incorporated.
Spread the Chickpeas evenly over a greased or lined Baking Tray. Bake for 30 minutes, stir, then bake for an additional 30 minutes. If the Chickpeas are not crispy at this point, broil them on high for 2-5 minutes.
The Chickpeas may initially retain some moisture, but should crisp up after about 5-10 minutes out of the oven. Serve as desired – they’re best when still slightly warm!

Notes

I have not tested this recipe using anything other than Cornstarch.
