Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 cup dried chickpeas
  • 6 cups vegetable broth ((or water))
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt ((or 1/2 teaspoon table salt))

Instruction

  • Rinse the chickpeas and pick out any stones.
  • Pile them into a slow cooker and add the broth (or water) and salt.Pro-tip: Pre-heat the broth in the microwave to give the cooking a little kick-start.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 3½ - 4 hours or on LOW for 6 - 7 hours. Check the beans at 3 hours if cooking on HIGH, and at 5 hours if cooking on LOW. Different slow cooker models cook at different temperatures, which will affect the cook time.
