Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash and thoroughly dry kale leaves. Remove stems and tear into bite-sized pieces.
- Toss kale with olive oil and sea salt until evenly coated without excess oil.
- Spread kale in a single layer on the baking sheet to allow even crisping.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until edges are crisp and slightly browned. Watch closely.
- Cool slightly before serving. Chips will crisp further as they cool.
Notes
For extra crunch, bake slightly longer at low heat. For softer texture, reduce bake time. Ensure kale is completely dry before baking. Avoid freezing, as texture becomes soggy. Handle gently after baking. Customize flavors with spices. Store in airtight container up to two days.
