A Great Alternative When You’re Craving Pretzels

Salty kale chips are a great alternative when you’re craving pretzels.

Ingredients:

  • 1 large bundle curly green or purple kale
  • 1-2 Tbsp melted coconut or avocado oil
  • Seasonings of choice (i.e. pinch sea salt, 1 tsp cumin powder, 1 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp curry powder, 1 Tbsp nutritional yeast, etc. // measurements listed per 1 large bundle kale)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 225 degrees F (107 C). Use convection bake if you have it to speed cooking time and help chips crisp up even more.
  • Rinse and thoroughly dry kale, then tear into small pieces and discard any large stems.
  • Add to a large mixing bowl and drizzle with oil and seasonings of choice. Toss thoroughly to combine, using hands to distribute the oil and seasonings evenly.
  • Spread the kale over 2 large baking sheets (use fewer or more if adjusting batch size), ensuring the kale touches as little as possible to help them crisp while baking.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, then turn the pans around and lightly toss/stir kale to ensure even baking. Bake for 5-10 minutes more, or until kale is crispy and very slight golden brown. Watch closely as it can burn easily.
  • Remove from oven and let cool slightly – chips will crisp up even more once out of the oven.
  • Enjoy immediately! Best when fresh. Store leftovers covered at room temperature for 2-3 days.
