How to make Instant Pot Chickpeas- sharing two different options, soak and no-soak! Cooking your chickpeas from scratch will save you money and tastes so much better than canned.
The Instant Pot has opened so many new opportunities to me! Exhibit A: cooking beans from scratch. Normally, this process takes a lot of time and effort, and you need to keep an eye on them while they simmer on the stove. Thanks to the Instant Pot, you can push a few buttons and have delicious chickpeas from scratch waiting for you.
Today I’m talking to you about Instant Pot chickpeas. I’ve been making my chickpeas this way for a few months now and I don’t think I can go back to canned now!
Not only does it save money (a 4 lb bag of chickpeas costs me $5.80 and is the equivalent of about 24 cups, or 12 cans of chickpeas!!), but they just taste better. Let’s discuss!
We love Instant Pot chickpeas because
