Instant Pot Chickpeas (no Soak)
These Instant Pot Chickpeas aka garbazos have the perfect bite! I love being able to cook a pot of beans in an hour with ease of no vapor or running over to refill the water. Cook the beans tender with only three natural ingredients for easy snacking and meal planning with garbanzos.

Notes

Storage: Allow beans to completely cool before storage. Use airtight storage for freshest beans all week long and always keep in refrigeration. Properly stored beans will last 6-7 days in the refrigerator for best taste.
