This Instant Pot Chickpeas no soak recipe makes perfectly cooked beans that are tender, & are ready in about an hour from dried chickpeas. An easy and protein packed snack to keep in the fridge to add to soups, salads, or any dish!
I love using my Instant Pot for quickly cooking dried beans - and these chickpeas turn out amazing every time!
Rinse and sort the chickpeas, discarding any broken bits or small stones.
Add the chickpeas and the water (plus any optional spices) to the Instant Pot. Set on Manual or High Pressure to cook for 45 minutes. Allow beans to naturally release for 15 minutes, then release any remaining pressure.
Drain the chickpeas. Keep in mind saving the water (aquafaba) which can be used to thicken other recipes.
