Baked Kale Chips Recipe

Preheat Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Prepare Kale:

Wash the kale leaves thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. Remove the tough stems and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces.

Massage with Olive Oil:

In a large bowl, drizzle the kale with olive oil. Massage the oil into the leaves, ensuring each piece is lightly coated.

Season:

Sprinkle sea salt over the kale. Optionally, add black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika for additional flavor.

Arrange on Baking Sheet:

Arrange the seasoned kale leaves in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure they are not overcrowded to allow even baking.

Bake:

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until the edges are crisp, and the kale becomes light and airy. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.

Cool and Crisp:

Allow the kale chips to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.

Serve:

Serve the baked kale chips as a healthy and flavorful snack.
