Description

Crispy, light, and salty kale chips — a nutrient-packed alternative to traditional snacks, perfect for a healthy and flavorful treat.


Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch kale, washed & dried
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp salt


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 300 °F (150 °C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking without burning the kale.
  2. Prepare Kale: Remove the tough stems from the kale and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces, making them easier to crisp up and eat.
  3. Season Kale: Toss the kale pieces with olive oil and salt until evenly coated, which helps them crisp while adding flavor.
  4. Bake: Spread the kale in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes until the leaves are crisp but not browned or burnt.

Notes

  • Sprinkle nutritional yeast over the kale before baking to add a cheesy flavor without dairy.
  • Ensure kale is completely dry before tossing with oil to avoid soggy chips.
  • Keep an eye on the kale during baking as it can go from crisp to burnt quickly.
