Sprouted chickpeas (also known as garbanzo beans) are a great choice for plant-based protein. They are high in fibre, an excellent source of protein and a good source of iron. Their tender, buttery texture and nutty, earthy flavour is perfect for a wide variety of dishes.
It is widely recommended that you soak dried chickpeas overnight to reduce their cook time and ease digestive discomfort. Sprouted chickpeas have already been through a slow soaking, sprouting and drying process, so you can completely skip the pre-soaking step. This makes preparation much quicker and more convenient, no thinking ahead needed! Sprouting actually goes a step further than soaking to aid in digestion, reduce phytic acid, enhance their taste and texture, and cut their cook time in half. Cooking sprouted chickpeas is very easy, simply boil in water. If you’re looking for alternatives, like cooking in a pressure cooker, check out our cooking guide.
They are wonderful whole, pureed or roasted. Use for delicious creamy hummus, hearty salads, soups, curries and more. Roast with spices and enjoy as a crunchy snack or salad topper. You can even blend them with your morning smoothie to add a thick, creamy texture and a boost of nutrition. Simply swap 1:1 with non-sprouted or canned chickpeas. You can find recipes here.

Organic Sprouted Chickpeas
After sprouting, we carefully dry the beans back down to their shelf stable moisture levels. This means you can store them as you would store unsprouted beans – in a cool, dry place.
Once you cook your sprouted pulses, they should be stored in an air-tight container in the fridge.
Shelf life: 2 years

These Chickpeas are fantastic! Chickpeas are a staple in our house, but unfortunately the non-sprouted variety began causing some GI issues. Second Spring Organic Sprouted Chickpeas to the rescue! We use them in many different recipes, but especially love cooking them in a pressure cooker and then roasting them in the oven to add to salads. So crunchy!
