- 3 cups kale leaves
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- pinch of kosher salt *see note below
- pinch of pepper *see note below
Recipe notes:
Kosher salt: If you feel like mixing it up, you can try different types of seasonings/salt on your kale chips like adobo seasoning, hickory smoked sea salt or zaatar spice blend! Regular salt also works fine.
Pepper: fresh ground pepper from a grinder tastes best in my opinion, however, regular ground pepper will also work!
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Rinse kale and pat dry. Remove leaves from stems and chop into "chip" sized pieces. Place chopped leaves into a small bowl.
Drizzle with olive oil. Use your hands and gently massage oil into leaves and then sprinkle with salt, pepper (feel free to try different seasonings if you want)!
Line kale leaves on a large baking sheet (I prefer to cover my baking sheet in foil for easier cleanup, but this is optional).
Bake leaves for 3 minutes. Flip and bake for 2-3 more. (Tip *check your chips often as they will burn quickly and easily. If you like a crispier chip with more browned color you can leave them in for longer, just keep a close eye on the oven).
Remove chips, allow them to cool, and enjoy! (Tip *try eating your chips with a little bit of homemade guacamole. So delicious)!
