Storage
Let the roasted chickpeas cool completely before storing to prevent trapping the steam inside the container, which can cause condensation and make them soggy.
Reheat in the oven to crisp up a little before serving.
Tips and Tricks
Pat Dry Chickpeas: Pat dry thoroughly with paper towels or a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
Shake Halfway Through Baking: Shake the tray halfway through baking for even browning and to prevent burning.
