Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Pour the chickpeas onto a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, chili powder and cumin and toss well to combine and evenly coat.

Step 3

Roast the chickpeas for 25 to 30 minutes or until crisp and slightly firm, stirring about halfway through. If you’d like your chickpeas to be a little crunchier, add another 10 minutes onto the cooking time.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the cayenne pepper hot sauce and melted butter, if using, and toss with the roasted chickpeas.
