Key Rules For Making Successful Kale Chips

Never Bake

Always dehydrate your kale for the best kale chips. If you don’t have a dehydrator, just put your oven on the lowest temperature and you won’t burn them…unless you leave them in all day.

Don’t Use Too Much Oil

When you use too much oil, it makes it hard for the kale chips to become crunchy. Make sure each leaf is lightly coated in oil to help get an even bite with great crunch.

Eat Quickly

When you make a batch of kale chips, it is always best to eat them right away. If you make several batches and want to save them, store them in an airtight container or Ziploc bag after and seal it tight to keep them fresh.

Don’t Over-season

You don’t have to get fancy with your kale chips. Lightly seasoning them with sea salt, black pepper, and paprika will do the trick. If you want, you can lightly dust them with some nutritional yeast. When you dehydrate the chips, the flavors intensify.
