I tried roasting my chick peas this morning (I was looking forward to a crunchy, salty snack tonight while I watch the "Friends" Finale *grin*) I followed the recipes exactly. I drained and dried them, added 2 tbs of olive oil, salt, pepper, red pepper and garlic salt, put them on a baking sheet in a 425 degree oven. I checked them after 20 minutes and they were sizzling away and then 5 minutes after that they were still good...but the next time I checked (after another 5 min) half of them were BLACK and charred looking! HUH?!
I'm so upset. I can't believe I screwed them up. It said to cook for 45 min or until crunchy enough. Mine were only in for 30 minutes and they're burnt!
HELP!

Hi Karen,
I have actually never made these - but, remembered an old thread about burnt chick peas.
How disappointing Karen... I'm so sorry!

You know what I made these this w/e and although I didn't burn them, they were great when I first took them out of the oven, but I put them in a container to have another time and when I got back to them they were soggy!
