This snack is made by crisping cooked chickpeas in an air fryer and seasoning them with a mild amount of berbere, an Ethiopian spice blend. Since no deep-frying oil is used, it is a convenient option for kids.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Dry the chickpeas

3 min

Pat the cooked chickpeas dry with a kitchen towel. Drizzle with olive oil and toss with the berbere spice and salt.

2

Air-fry

10 min

Spread the chickpeas in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook on the high-heat setting for 10 minutes, shaking the basket occasionally, until crisp.

3

Cool and serve

2 min

Let the chickpeas rest for 2 minutes after removing them from the air fryer, then serve warm to your child.

Reminder

Be sure to dry the chickpeas thoroughly before putting them in the air fryer; wet chickpeas will steam in the basket instead of crisping.
