Crispy Ranch Air Fryer Chickpeas

Sharing this quick and healthy snack recipe for crispy ranch air fryer chickpeas!
Hi hi! How is the day going? We’re chilling here at home and taking it easy today. I’ve been studying, cleaning, participating in retail therapy, and cooking some tasty eats. I made these super delicious air fryer chickpeas and wanted to share the recipe with you.
The kids and I LOVE the Bienas chickpea snacks (we order them from Thrive Market!) but they tend to be a little on the pricey side, especially when the three of us consume a bag in a single sitting. I was looking at them the other day and thought it would be a fun experiment to make them on my own.
It was way easier than I thought and I made a giant batch that we enjoyed yesterday afternoon. These will definitely be making another appearance as part of meal prep and packed lunch snacks for the kids.
Crispy Ranch Air Fryer Chickpeas
Here are the ingredients to make these lil beauties:
2 cans of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
Avocado oil (you can also use olive oil)
Seasoning of choice. Since I did a ranch version, I included onion powder, garlic powder, dried parsley, dried dill, dried chives, salt and pepper. You can also get wild and use Everything But the Bagel Seasoning, Dill Pickle seasoning, curry, anything you like!
How to make crispy air fryer chickpeas
Step one
Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Gently pat dry with a paper towel. Preheat the air fryer to 390.
Step two
Lightly coat the chickpeas with a drizzle of oil and make sure that they’re fully coated.
Step three
Make the seasoning mix in a separate bowl. Stir well and sprinkle the chickpeas with the seasoning mix.
Step four
Add the chickpeas to the air fryer, and make sure they’re evenly spread out. Gently season with salt and pepper.
Step five
Air fry for 12-15 minutes, shaking the air fryer basket every so often, until golden and crispy, about 12-15 minutes.

Crispy Ranch Air Fryer Chickpeas
A super delicious and healthy homemade snack that the whole family will love!
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
- Cook Time: 12-15 minutes
- Total Time: 47 minute
- Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients
2 cans of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
Avocado oil
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon chives
1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional but really adds a blast of flavor)
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
Salt and pepper
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 390.
In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas and all of the seasonings. Season well with salt and pepper.
Air fry for 12-15 minutes, making sure to shake the air fryer basket occasionally. Remove when they’re golden brown and crispy!
Top with additional seasoning as needed. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Store any leftovers in a sealed container. They should last 3-5 days.
And a short how-to video:
Tips for using the air fryer:
– Don’t be scared! I was intimidated for a long time, and I also didn’t think it would be “worth it” as far as counter space goes. It’s worth it. We use it almost every day and it’s especially amazing for anything frozen, like fries and veggies. Potatoes are an air fryer dream, let me tell ya.
– Make sure there’s room in the air fryer basket for air to circulate. You don’t want to totally pack it.
– If you’re looking for an easier cleaning option, you can get some air fryer parchment.
A question for my air fryer friends: my only slight gripe is that ours is coated with a nonstick Teflon-ish material. I’m looking for one with a stainless steel basket if you have any recommendations!
Please let me know if you give this recipe a try. 🙂
Have a wonderful day and I’ll see ya soon.

Don’t have an air fryer? No worries! You can make roast at 400 degrees on a cookie sheet for about 35 minutes. I have a BBQ chickpea recipe here!
