Roasted Chickpea Rice Krispies
Love chickpeas? Then you have to try my roasted chickpea Rice Krispies. This Healthyish recipe is the newest and tastiest way to enjoy them.
Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 10 ounces marshmallows
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 5.5 cups Rice Krispy cereal
Equipment
- saute pan
- baking tray
- 8x8 baking dish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Spray an 8x8 baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Drain and rinse your chickpeas.
- Pat them dry using a paper towel or clean kitchen towel. This step is very important. Remove as much moisture as possible so you get perfectly crispy chickpeas.
- Spray a baking tray with cooking spray. Add the chickpeas to the tray.
- Spray the chickpeas once more with the cooking spray. This step is also very important.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes and broil for an additional 2 minutes to get the chickpeas nice and crispy.
- Give the pan a light shake about halfway through so the chickpeas roll around. This helps them to cook evenly.
- While the chickpeas are baking, begin the marshmallow butter mixture. This will only take about 5-6 minutes, so you can start this once the chickpeas are almost finished roasting.
- In a large sauté pan, add the butter and let it melt. Once fully melted add the marshmallows. Stir until fully melted and well combined.
- Place over low heat until you are ready to add the crispy chickpeas and rice cereal.
- Add the rice cereal and roasted chickpeas into the pan with the marshmallow and butter. Stir until they are well coated.
- Add everything to the prepared 8x8 baking dish. Using wax paper or the back of your spatula, gently press the Rice Krispy mixture into the pan.
- Let them cool before cutting.
- Enjoy! Best served the same day.
