Ingredients
- 1 can of garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed 15-ounce
- Oil spray or 1 teaspoon of oil
- ⅛ teaspoon of salt or more to taste
- ½ teaspoon of nutritional yeast or more to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Pat dry your garbanzo beans with a towel to remove excess water.

- Cook at 400 degrees F for 4 minutes, shake up the basket, and then cook for 3 to 4 more minutes, until barely crispy.
- Sprinkle with salt and nutritional yeast (if using).
