Crunchy Air Fryer Chickpeas

These Air Fryer Crunchy Smoked Paprika Chickpeas are both crunchy and smokey! A great snack with a beer, scattered over a salad or by the handful. Best eaten shortly after they are made and cooled, the flavour possibilities are endless.
Air Fryer Crunchy Smoked Paprika Chickpeas
1 can chickpeas
1/2 tsp salt
1tsp smoked paprika.
1/2 tsp Cayenne pepper
1 tbsp oil
Drain a can of chickpeas and rinse.
Place washed chickpeas into a bowl and remove all the loose shells.
Dry the chickpeas. If they are wet, they will not crisp up.
Add salt, smoked paprika, Cayenne and oil to the chickpeas and mix well.
Preheat the air fryer 180C/350F for 3-5 minutes.
Place a piece of baking paper, aluminium foil or silicon mat into the bottom of the air fryer to prevent the chickpeas falling through the air fryer grill.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until crispy, shacking occasionally so they don't burn on one side.
Allow the chickpeas to cool before serving.
Best served soon after cooking to insure best crunch. They will go soft if left exposed to air or moisture.
They can be 're-crisped' by reheating in the air fryer 4-7 minutes.
Store in an airtight container once cooled.
