Make ahead, storage, and freezer tips
Storage - Store air-fried crisy chickpeas in an airtight container or storage bag for up to one week.
If you like to eat your air fryer roasted chickpeas warm, you can return them to the air fryer at 350°F/180°C for 2 to 3 minutes or until they are warm again.
I do not recommend freezing these as they can become soggy.
