Air Fryer Instructions
Place the chickpeas in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook at 390°F for about 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking. Once the chickpeas are dry and firm, carefully transfer them to a bowl and toss them with your buffalo sauce mixture. Return the coated chickpeas to the air fryer and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes or until they reach the desired crispiness.
The exact amount of time varies with the make and model of your appliance. Check the progress frequently until you're familiar with how chickpeas roast in your air fryer. You do not need to preheat the air fryer!
Storage
Buffalo roasted chickpeas are best enjoyed right away. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. When you're ready to enjoy them again, simply reheat them in the oven or air fryer for 3-5 minutes.
