Preheat oven to 325F.
Sift your chickpea flour through a fine mesh strainer to remove and lumps.
In a large bowl, combine chickpea flour with nutritional yeast and spices and whisk until fully combined.
1 cup chickpea flour*, 3 tbsp nutritional yeast, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp turmeric
Pour in your olive oil and 4 tbsp of warm water. Mix with a spoon at first then use your hands to knead the dough to incorporate the liquid. If needed, add another 0.5 tbsp of water at a time until the dough is soft but not sticky. Form into a dough ball.
4-5 tbsp warm water , 2 tbsp olive oil
Place dough ball between two pieces of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin (or a wine bottle) gently roll out the dough in multiple directions to create a large square. Roll the dough to be about 1/8-1/4 inch thick.
Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut out a square. Save the extra cuttings to roll into a dough ball again to make more chips. Cut your square into triangle shapes or whatever shape chip you prefer. Place them on a parchment lined baking sheet evenly with no overlap.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until they are browned on the edges slightly.
Let them cool for a few minutes before enjoying with your favorite dip or on their own.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days.

How to easily make your own chickpea flour at home:

Place dried chickpeas in a high speed blender or food processor. Blend on high until it forms a flour. Strain through fine-mesh strainer to get rid of any lumps.

Other tips:

Use your hands to knead the dough (a spoon will not get the job done!)
Roll your dough out thinly between two pieces of parchment paper. I rolled mine out to ~1/8 inch (pretty thin!) so they got really crispy!
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Serve with Dill Pickle Hummus or Everything Seasoning Hummus for some fun dipping flavors!
