Notes
Either refined or virgin (unrefined) coconut oil may be used. Refined coconut oil has a neutral taste and odor, while virgin coconut oil will taste somewhat tropical.
Roasted chickpeas are crunchiest the same day you make them. To keep them as crunchy as possible, store them at room temperature in a loosely covered container, like a bowl covered lightly with a paper towel.
Replace the honey with maple syrup or agave to make this recipe vegan.
