Roasted chickpeas as a post-workout snack
Ingredients (for approx. 2 servings)
- 1 can chickpeas (approx. 240 g drained weight)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp chili powder
- ½ tsp paprika powder
- ½ tsp turmeric
- 1 tsp yacon powder (optional for a touch of sweetness)
- 1 pinch of salt
Preparation
- Rinse the chickpeas well with water and then dry them very thoroughly (important for the crunch!).
- Preheat the oven to 200 °C (392 °F) top/bottom heat (fan-assisted 180 °C / 356 °F).
- Mix the chickpeas with oil and spices in a bowl.
- Place the oiled and seasoned chickpeas on a baking sheet, making sure they are not overlapping.
- Roast for about 25 to 30 minutes, turning them once halfway through.
- Let them cool briefly afterwards, as this makes them even crunchier.
PureRaw Upgrade
- Add a little baobab powder to give the chickpeas a slightly fruity taste.
- For a spicy-chocolatey variation, add some cocoa and chili to the chickpeas.
- Top the chickpeas with hemp seeds for an extra portion of protein.
Tip: Combine the chickpeas right after your workout with a protein source, such as a shake made from our post-workout mix, to ensure optimal nutrient intake.
