Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water.
Spread the chickpeas on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and gently pat them dry. Removing excess moisture helps them crisp up better.
Once dried, place the chickpeas in a mixing bowl.
Add olive oil to the bowl and toss the chickpeas until they are evenly coated.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, paprika, cumin, black pepper, and onion powder.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the chickpeas, making sure to coat them evenly by stirring.
Spread the seasoned chickpeas onto a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even cooking, until the chickpeas are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. The chickpeas will become even crunchier as they cool.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
