Ingredients
1 16 oz. can garbanzo beans (chickpeas)1 tsp Tumeric1 tsp Curry Powder1/4 tsp cinnamon, ground1 tsp ground cumin1 tsp garlic powder1/2 tsp cayenne pepper1/4 tsp white pepper1/2 Tbsp sesame seeds2 tsp olive oil
Directions
Preheat oven to 200 Degrees. Drain and rinse chickpeas. Lay on a kitchen towel and gently pat dry. Place chickpeas on parchment paper or non-stick tin foil-covered baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes - this is to dry out the chickpeas at a lower temperature.

As these bake, mix all spices and sesame seeds with the olive oil.

Take chickpeas out of oven and let them cool thoroughly. Increase temperature of oven to 400 Degrees.

Once chickpeas are cool, coat and toss chickpeas with spice/olive oil mixture. Spread chickpeas onto the same baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes more, shaking the pan half way through to turn chickpeas. Chickpeas should be golden brown on the outside - crunchy outside and creamy in the middle. Adjust cooking time if chickpeas are still mushy on the outside. Make sure chickpeas are spread evenly over baking sheet. Turn off oven and leave chickpeas in an additional 5 minutes as oven cools.

Makes 8 1/4 cup servings.
