Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups dried lupin beans
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the dried lupin beans thoroughly under cold water to remove any debris.
Soak the lupin beans in cold water for at least 12 hours or overnight to rehydrate.
Drain and rinse the soaked lupin beans, then dry them as much as possible using a clean kitchen towel.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the dried lupin beans, olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and ground black pepper.
Toss the ingredients until the lupin beans are evenly coated with the oil and spices.
Spread the lupin beans out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 75-90 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, until the beans are golden brown and crunchy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer the roasted 'corn' nuts to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to a week.
