  • Evenly spread out on baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes or until slightly golden and tender.

For the crispy chickpeas:

  • Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix until well combined.
  • Air Fryer Method:
  • Place chickpeas into an air fryer and cook at 385F for 10-15 minutes depending on desired crispiness. Shake halfway through.

  • To make your white bean carrot top dip, add garlic to a food processor and pulse a few times.
  • Then add all remaining ingredients and pulse until smooth or desired consistency.
  • To plate, spread your dip onto a large plate, top with roasted carrots and crispy chickpeas (I ususally save some of the crispy chickpeas to have on hand) then drizzle with vegan sour cream or cashew cream and chopped carrot tops.
  • Enjoy!
