Bean Takis
Beans make some of the best snacks. Any bean can be crispy roasted. And all beans have their different benefits. For our first recipe we are going to make it insanely simple, in the air fryer, with pinto beans. The first thing I do is open a can of pinto beans, drain them and rinse them well.

Pinto Beans
Next I dry the beans off very well. Then give them a spray of olive oil and into the air fryer at 400ºF for twenty five minutes. Then while the pinto beans are cooking I start the longer recipe which is going to get you a bit more flavor. Black beans take a bit longer to cook. So to start I rinse them, try to get off some of the skins. Then I pat them dry. Give them a spray of olive oil and into the oven at 400ºF for thirty five minutes. Now the pinto beans are done in the air fryer. Then I take them out and put them in a bowl. Then I also pulled my black beans out of the oven after twenty two minutes and let them sit.

Black Beans
Then I give the pinto beans another spray of olive oil. Next I sprinkle in some tajin, a bit of salt, and a little cayenne pepper. And there you have a very quick, very easy pinto bean taki snack! They are super good! Back to the black beans. Then in a bowl I add half a tablespoon of salt, a small pinch of sugar, a half teaspoon of msg, a half teaspoon citric acid, a half teaspoon maltodextrin, two teaspoons cayenne pepper, some chili powder, habanero powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and some paprika. Then mix and crush the powders together.

Taste Test!
Then add in the black beans, give them a little spray of olive oil then coat them in the seasoning. Once they are coated we throw these into the oven for just ten minutes. Then they are done! The pinto beans came out great! They are a little smokey. The black beans came out really great too, they are more like takis. Both beans turned out tasting great, you should give these recipes a try! Watch the full video here!
