Roasted Falafel Chickpeas

Falafel is a classic Middle Eastern dish of fried chickpea balls that are usually served in pita bread. Here, we’re using the flavors of falafel (cumin and coriander) to make an easy, crunchy snack. If you want to double the recipe, go ahead — these disappear very quickly! But don’t try making more than you plan to eat soon, since they’re really best when they’re fresh.

Ingredients
 

  • 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed with cold water

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon ground coriander

Instructions
 

  • Turn the oven on and set the heat to 350 degrees.
