How To Get Crispy Chickpeas From The Air Fryer!
If you have ever had your air fryer go through less than crispy chickpeas, then this is one of the most important parts for reading. Here are some tips on makr your chickpeas crsipy! and coko up better. Some common problems are:
- When purchasing canned chickpeas, I recommend setting them on a kitchen towel to dry after draining. Not only do they need the moisture removed in order for you add olive oil and salt but also so that any excess liquid can be absorbed by your food preparation process
- You can remove the skins, though this is a lot of work. If you really want them crispy- don’t hesitate!
- You can’t keep them for more than a day or two, so be sure to eat them on the same date that you make them. As they get older, their crispiness will start to wane and lose its crunchiness!
How To Store
These are delicious and will not stay crispy for long. I recommend eating them on the same day you make them, but here is how to store any leftovers if needed!
Let them cool and then place them into an open container, or a brown paper bag, and store them at room temperature. Never refrigerate them. Otherwise, you will notice that they will all stick together.
Eat within a day; otherwise, dispose of them, and make a new batch.
