- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin

Instructions
- Drain, rinse and dry chickpeas very thoroughly.
- Toss with olive oil and seasonings.
- Preheat air fryer to 390°F / 199°C.
- Air fry 12–16 minutes, shaking every 4–5 minutes.
- Remove when crisp and golden; they become slightly crisper as they cool.
