Time:Making Time (20 mins)

Difficulty level:Easy

Ingredients:
  • Kale - 1 bunch
  • Olive Oil - 1/2 tbsp 
  • Black Pepper - 1 tsp
  • Salt to taste
Preparation:
  1. Preheat the oven to 300F. Line a large cookie tray with a layer of parchment paper.
  2. Remove the leaves from the stems of the Kale.Wash the Kale leaves,drain all the water completely and pat dry. 
  3. Transfer to a large bowl and add 1/2 tbsp olive oil,pepper powder and salt. Mix and toss them well so that the Kale leaves get coated well.
  4. Now layer the kale leaves on the baking sheet.Make sure to spread them out.
  5. Bake it in the oven for 15 mins or so. Rotate the cookie sheet so that the leaves are baked evenly. Bake for another 10 mins or until crisp.
  6. Take it off the oven and let it cool for 2-3 mins. Fresh homemade,baked healthy kale chips snack is ready to be eaten :)
Chef's Tip:

- The kale leaves need to be totally dry before putting it in the oven. Else the moisture won't let it become crispy.
- I used just salt and pepper to season. Feel free to vary the seasoning with Kosher salt,Cajun Pepper,Garlic Powder or even Red Chili Powder.
