Notes
You can also use this same recipe with chickpeas instead of bread for a healthier choice. Just note that those do not keep (they won’t stay crispy if stored) and you should eat them right away. ☺️Note: Nutritional information is approximate values and can vary significantly depending on the specific brands and quality of ingredients used.
