1
Preheat your oven to 425°F and position a rack in the center.
2
Drain the 15-oz canned chickpeas, rinse under running water, and leave them on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Allow to air-dry for 30 to 40 minutes.
3
Place the air-dried chickpeas in a medium bowl, add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt, and toss until the chickpeas are well-coated.
4
Spread the oiled and salted chickpeas evenly on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven, stirring every 10 minutes, until they are slightly darker and crunchy on the outside. This should take approximately 25 minutes.
5
Immediately after removing the chickpeas from the oven, sprinkle them with the 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/8 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Toss until well combined. Adjust the seasoning as per your taste, adding more sugar or spices as needed. Be sure to enjoy them while they are still warm!
