Crispy Chickpeas in Air Fryer is another one of my Air Fryer Recipes, or rather, one of my tastiest Appetizers, and super easy to prepare!
I had already made Crispy Chickpeas in the microwave and couldn’t resist making them in the air fryer as well! You know how much I love preparing appetizer snacks like the parmesan mini savory pies
or the Sesame Seed Crackers to share with my daughter or friends, and these are perfect for me because they are super quick and healthy too!
Like all my other Air Fryer Recipes this one is also really easy and quick to make, and you’ll get a perfect appetizer to serve in your Menus.

How to Prepare Crispy Chickpeas in Air Fryer
Drain the chickpeas from the preserving water and rinse them under cold running water.
Drain them and then dry them well with kitchen paper towels.
In a plate, mix the flour with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. If you don’t like the taste of paprika, you can easily replace it with other spices like curry or herbs like oregano or rosemary.
Now roll the chickpeas in the flavored flour and drain them from the excess flour using a slotted spoon.
Transfer the floured chickpeas into the air fryer’s basket and spray them with extra virgin olive oil.
Cook the chickpeas in the air fryer at 392°F for 11 minutes.
When they are ready, serve the crispy chickpeas hot!
How to Store Crispy Chickpeas in Air Fryer
Crispy chickpeas in air fryer can be stored for 2 days at room temperature, although I recommend making and consuming them immediately.
