Easy Roasted Chickpea Avocado Toast

How to Make Roasted Chickpea Avocado Toast

  • First, roast the chickpeas with all of the yummy spices and a little olive oil so they get crispy. Yes, this will take a little oven time, but you can put them in the oven and forget them…just make sure you set a timer:) AND if you are making the avocado toast for just you, you will have leftovers. You can keep the chickpeas in a container in the fridge and reheat them in the microwave. This is a great meal prep recipe!
  • While the chickpeas are roasting, whisk together the SIMPLE lemon tahini dressing. This will take you 5 minutes tops to make! It’s so easy and SO good! And you can keep the leftover dressing in the fridge so you can make avocado toast all week OR you can use it on any salad or make this or this. Both are TASTY! This dressing is a staple in our house, we always have it on hand.
  • To assemble the toast, toast your bread, I use whole wheat bread but you can use gluten-free bread or your favorite bread. Smash the avocado with a fork, add a little lemon juice, spread it onto your toast. Top with the roasted chickpeas and a drizzle of lemon tahini dressing. Eat and enjoy every single bite!

If you are looking for an easy, healthy recipe that you can eat anytime of the day, this is it! This Roasted Chickpea Avocado Toast is vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free…if you use gluten-free bread:) I am obsessed with it and I think you will be too. Don’t worry, it is a good obsession to have:)

Ingredients
  

FOR THE CHICKPEAS:

FOR THE LEMON TAHINI DRESSING:

  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 1/2 lemons juiced (about 4 tablespoons)
  • 1/3 cup hot water
  • Kosher salt and black pepper to taste

FOR THE AVOCADO TOAST:ย 

  • 4 slices bread I use whole wheat, you can use gluten-free bread
  • 2 large avocados
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the chickpeas, olive oil, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and tumeric. Stir until chickpeas are well coated. Place on a large baking sheet and roast the chickpeas for 25-30 minutes, or until chickpeas are crispy.
  • While the chickpeas are roasting, make the lemon tahini dressing. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the tahini, garlic, lemon juice, and, water. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. If the dressing is too thick, add a little more water and whisk again.
  • Remove the pits from the avocados and discard. Scoop out the avocado flesh with a spoon and place into a medium bowl. Add lemon juice and mash with a fork. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the mashed avocado onto the toast slices. Top with roasted chickpeas and a drizzle of lemon tahini dressing. Serve immediately.
  • Note-you can make the roasted chickpeas and dressing in advance. I store them both in the refrigerator. To reheat the chickpeas, place them in a microwave safe bowl and reheat for about 20 seconds.

  1. OMG I’m obsessed too! I can never get enough crispy chickpea and avocados. Plus, that dressing is clutch!

  2. I roasted chickpeas the other day for a recipe and almost ate all of them as a snack, they were awesome as is this toast!!

  3. 5 stars
    I just made this recipe and it’s amazing!!! The chickpeas by themselves were incredibly good. I had to stop myself from eating them right after they came out of the oven so there would be some left for the toast. The dressing, chickpeas and avocado together was just devine. The second best part is how easy everything was make.

  4. Hi, thanks for the great recipes. I don’t have a pressure cooker but really want to try the Honey Sesame Chicken. Can you tell me how long to cook on the stove?
    Thank you!

  5. 4 stars
    I made just the chickpeas, and they were quite tasty! I did reduce the amount of smoked paprika by 1/2 so the flavor wasn’t too overwhelming. Will make again!

    Hi Maria, I went and tried the avocado and chickpeas toast this morning, just to give the combination of the eggs and avocado a break and although I haven’t tried the tahini lemon dressing which sounds heavenly and something I would like, I did try adding Mexican hot sauce (Valentina) and it was so good. I will get on it with your recipe with the tahini sauce but this new combination of avocado and chickpeas is Soooooooo good!!!!

    1. It is ground up sesame seeds. Most grocery stores carry it. It is creamy like a nut butter.

  7. Fabulous recipe – thank you. Iโ€™m vegan and made this for my entire family – even my hard to please kids loved it. Your collection of recipes seems largely vegetarian based – would you ever consider focusing solely on vegetarian and vegan recipes?

  8. this sounds wonderful…and so easy! I am determined to bring down my cholesterol…I think this will help!

  9. 5 stars
    This is INCREDIBLE. My husband and I first made it about two months ago and now we eat it at least once a week for lunch. And I could eat those roasted chickpeas straight from the pan. Soooo yummy. The only change we make is to switch out the dressing for goat or feta cheese since we usually have those and donโ€™t always have tahini. Thanks for the awesome recipe!

  10. 5 stars
    Excellent and simple! Only made two slight alterations. Threw on some halved cherry tomatoes and added a teaspoon of maple syrup to the dressing.

    Thanks!
