Preheat the air fryer to 190C/375F.
Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then pat them completely dry with a paper towel.
In a bowl, toss the chickpeas with olive oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Spread the chickpeas in a single layer in the basket. Cook for 8 minutes, shaking the basket every 4 minutes until crispy.
Let them cool for a few minutes, as they get crispier as they cool down.

TO STORE: Let the chickpeas cool completely, then store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

TO FREEZE: Place leftovers in a ziplock bag and store it in the freezer for up to 6 months.

Flavor variations

Swap the seasoning blend. Try taco seasoning, Cajun seasoning, or ranch seasoning.
Or add a mix of spices. Try a combination of paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Cheese. Cheese makes everything better, doesn’t it? Add a sprinkle of parmesan cheese a few minutes after the chickpeas are done cooking.
