Vegan Chickpea Crackers Recipes

25+ VEGAN CHICKPEA RECIPES: 7 SPICE CHICKPEA STEW

Steps:

• In a deep skillet or a small soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is lightly shimmering, add the onions to the pan. Cook and stir the onions until translucent and quite soft, about 5-6 minutes. You want the onions to be quietly sizzling while they cook, so lower the heat if necessary.
• Add the spice blend to the skillet and stir. Once the spices are quite fragrant and fully integrated with the onions (about 1 minute), add the tomato paste, mashing it with the back of your spoon into the spices and oil. Add the garlic and chickpeas and stir the mixture for 30 seconds.
• Add the balsamic vinegar and tomatoes to the pan and stir, using the back of your spoon to scrape up any brown bits that may have formed on the bottom of the pan. Add the coconut milk to the skillet and season the stew with salt and pepper.
• Bring the seven spice chickpea stew to a boil, and then lower the heat to a light simmer. Cook the stew for about 10-15 minutes, or until the flavours have melded to your liking. Garnish the top of the stew with the chopped parsley/cilantro. Serve stew hot with polenta, brown rice or any other accompaniment you like.

VEGAN CHICKPEA CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Mix all dry ingredients, when stir in sesame oil. Gradually add water, adjusting as needed. Dough is ready when it can be formed into a ball (but don't make it too wet, as rolling out will be really hard).
• You can dust a surface and roll out with a pin, or press with a tortilla press (which is what I do). I like to press numerous small circles, so they cook more evenly. The edges will brown before the center gets done.
• Put dough on a non-stick cookie sheet and prick with a fork. You can cut them apart with a pizza cutter now, or lightly score them--however you like. I leave them in my little circles. Bake 15-20 minutes or until crisp in the center!
• Servings will depend on how big you make your crackers!

Steps:

• Choose your favorite flavor combination above. Follow the steps below, using the correct spices and liquids for your flavor combo.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F or 200C°.
• In a fine-mesh strainer, drain and rinse a 15 oz can of chickpeas. Place the chickpeas on a clean, dry kitchen towel to pat off the excess moisture.
• Spread the chickpeas on a lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Pour the chickpeas into a mixing bowl. Add the spices and liquids for your chosen flavor combination.
• Return the chickpeas to the oven. Roast for an additional 20 minutes, taking them out at 10 minutes to turn and move the chickpeas around on the pan (this will keep them from sticking and promote more even baking).
• Test the chickpeas after another 10 minutes. If they still soft on the inside, return to the oven for another 5 minutes.
• If the chickpeas are starting to burn, but they still aren't totally crispy, turn off the oven, open the oven a few inches at the top, and let the chickpeas rest for 10 to 15 minutes. They will continue to dry out in the hot oven.
• When the chickpeas are crunchy on both the outside and inside they are done. Enjoy right away or store at room temperature, (covered but not airtight) for up to 5 days.
