Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, well-rinsed and drained

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for a spicy kick)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well-blended—this will be your flavorful honey mustard dressing.

      Add the rinsed and drained chickpeas into the bowl with the dressing. Gently toss the chickpeas until they are fully coated with the honey mustard mixture, ensuring every chickpea gets a good amount of flavor.

        Spread the seasoned chickpeas out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not crowded to allow for even roasting.

          Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the chickpeas for 25-30 minutes. Remember to stir them halfway through the cooking time to ensure they get nice and crispy on all sides. You want them to be golden brown and crunchy.

            Once roasted, remove the chickpeas from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving to enhance their crunchiness.
