Equipment

  • 1 Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chickpeas
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Prep your beans. If dry, cook them. If canned, drain and rinse them. Then place the beans in an air fryer without any oil.

  • Cook at 390 F. for 20 minutes, stirring every 2-3 minutes after the first 10 minutes of cooking.
    And air fryer display panel set to 390 degrees for 20 minutes.
  • Toward the end of the cooking time for the beans, melt your chocolate in the microwave, in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir, and microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Repeat until the chocolate is melted if needed.

  • When the chocolate is melted and the beans are done air frying, transfer the beans to a bowl and cool them until you can touch them without burning yourself. This happens pretty quickly.
