Chef's Note

Make sure to dry the chickpeas thoroughly before roasting - this is key to getting them crispy. This mix keeps well in an airtight container for up to a week, though the chickpeas will gradually lose some of their crispness. For best results, keep the roasted chickpeas separate from the dried fruit and chocolate until ready to eat.

Ingredients
  • 1 can (15 oz) canned chickpeas

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries

  • 1/3 cup dried apricots

  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • 2

    Drain and rinse 1 can of chickpeas, then thoroughly pat dry with paper towels, removing any loose skins.

  • 3

    In a medium bowl, toss the dried chickpeas with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until evenly coated.

  • 4

    Spread the seasoned chickpeas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

  • 5

    Bake for 18-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the chickpeas are golden brown and crispy.

  • 6

    Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet (about 10 minutes).

  • 7

    While chickpeas are cooling, chop 1/3 cup dried apricots into small pieces, about the size of the cranberries.

  • 8

    Transfer the cooled chickpeas to a large bowl and add 1/3 cup dried cranberries, the chopped dried apricots, and 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips.

  • 9

    Gently mix all ingredients together.

  • 10

    Divide into 4 equal portions (about 1/2 cup each) and store in airtight containers or resealable bags.
