Autumn Snack: Crispy Cinnamon Garbanzo Beans

[/caption]

Ok, these are the most delicious snack EVER! I’ve made them numerous times with a variety of seasonings (chili powder is super tasty), but nothing says Fall like cinnamon. I promise these don’t taste “bean-y” at all. You’d be surprised how garbanzo beans can transform into a crunchy treat. All I can say is: Don’t knock ’em til you try ’em!

1 can garbanzo beans, well drained

2 Tbsp coconut oil

1 tbsp sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

pinch of salt

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2. Line a rimmed cookie sheet with paper towels. Pour garbanzo beans

onto paper towels to dry them off.

3. Toss garbanzo beans with remaining ingredients. Spread out into single layer.

4. Roast them in the oven until crunchy and no longer soft in the centers, about

45 minutes to 1 hour. (Stir them a few times to prevent burning.)

Veggies: Eat them because you want to, not because you have to
