- High in protein,
- High in fiber,
- Great source of folate and plant-based iron,
Recipe Steps
You won’t believe how easy it is to make roasted chickpeas! All you need are canned chickpeas (also called garbanzo beans), coconut oil, and some spices.
Step One
Drain and rinse your chickpeas. Pat them dry to make sure they get really crispy in the oven.
Step Two
Toss them with the oil and spices.
Step Three
Bake the garlic roasted chickpeas for 45 minutes at 400 degrees. You can also make Air Fryer Roasted Chickpeas.
Step Four
Let the roasted chickpeas cool slightly before serving. Or, let them cool completely for ultimate crispiness.

Expert Tips & Substitutions
- You can get creative with the spices that you add to your roasted garbanzo beans, but I like to use Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. Plus, I always add a little sea salt to add more flavor.
- Sometimes I like to make a variation of this recipe and use dried dill and dried parsley in addition to the Italian seasoning. It really just depends on which dried herbs you like the most. See my other recipe for Ranch Roasted Chickpeas.

Carrie, many of us follow low fodmap food plans and find garlic/onion are big triggers to our gut issues. Do you have any suggestions ona different herb/spice to add to this recipe when leaving garlic/onion out? I can’t wait to try it but do not want it to be bland!!
Thanks so much for your response.
Hi Peggy, you could make a ranch style version with dill and parsley. Just add salt to boost the flavor. They will be delish even without garlic or onion. Enjoy!!!
