Chef's Notes

Substitutions
Substitute another white bean for chickpeas like Northern, cannellini, or Navy beans.

Prep Ahead
If making the chickpeas ahead of time, make and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to one month.

Traditional Oven Directions
Heat oven to 170 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Evenly space chickpeas along the baking sheet and dehydrate them for 4–6 hours, tossing halfway through.

Store the dehydrated chickpeas in a clean airtight container at room temperature in a cool, dark place for up to six months.
