Ingredients
Scale
- 1 bunch kale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Sea salt, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C).
- Remove stems from the kale and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
- Wash the kale thoroughly and dry completely using a salad spinner and paper towels.
- Transfer the dried kale to a large bowl. Add olive oil and gently massage into the leaves until evenly coated.
- Arrange kale in a single layer on a baking sheet, leaving space between each piece. Bake in two batches if necessary.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then rotate the pan and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes, or until the leaves are crispy and dry to the touch.
- Sprinkle with sea salt while still warm. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Make sure kale is thoroughly dry to ensure maximum crispiness.
- Experiment with seasonings like nutritional yeast, garlic powder, or chili flakes for extra flavor.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain crunch.
- Best enjoyed fresh but can last 1–2 days when properly stored.
