Chocolate Covered Chickpeas

Step 1

Prep your beans. If dry, cook them. If canned, drain and rinse them. Then place the beans in an air fryer without any oil.

Step 2

Cook at 390 F. for 20 minutes, stirring every 2-3 minutes after the first 10 minutes of cooking.

Step 3

Toward the end of the cooking time for the beans, melt your chocolate in the microwave, in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir, and microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Repeat until the chocolate is melted if needed.

Step 4

When the chocolate is melted and the beans are done air frying, transfer the beans to a bowl and cool them until you can touch them without burning yourself. This happens pretty quickly.

Step 5

Then place some of the beans in the bowl of chocolate and coat them well.

Step 6

Using a fork, remove each bean and place it on a piece of parchment paper to cool. You can make these as individual beans, or you can make clusters. The choice is yours.

Step 7

Once cool, transfer to a bowl or container and store in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.
