Additional Notes/Tips

  1. Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet. The kale needs room to crisp up.
  2. If you like a bit of spice, sprinkle some chili flakes on top before baking.
  3. Keep an eye on the kale—too long in the oven and it’ll burn faster than your willpower to resist eating it all.
  4. Experiment with seasoning blends; nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor if you’re into that.
  5. Kale chips are best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a couple of days.
