Crispy Salt and Vinegar Kale Chips

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Salt and Vinegar Kale Chips.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and get two baking sheets ready by lining them with parchment paper.

2. Step 2

   Next, give your kale a good wash to remove any dirt, then tear the leaves away from the tough ribs.

3. Step 3

   It’s important to dry the kale thoroughly; this will help them turn wonderfully crispy in the oven.

4. Step 4

   In a large bowl, combine olive oil, malt vinegar, and a sprinkle of salt, whisking them together until well blended.

5. Step 5

   Now, add the kale leaves to the bowl and gently toss them until they’re beautifully coated in the mixture.

6. Step 6

   Let the kale sit for about five minutes; this little pause allows the flavors to soak in.

7. Step 7

   Once the kale is ready, divide it evenly between your two baking sheets, spreading the leaves out in a single layer without any overlapping.

8. Step 8

   Pop the sheets into your preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.

9. Step 9

   After that, grab some tongs and carefully flip each chip over, then continue baking for another five minutes or until they’re perfectly crispy.

10. Step 10

    When they’re done, transfer the chips to a paper towel to soak up any extra oil.

11. Step 11

    If you find any larger chips that are still a bit soft, don’t worry! Just return them to the oven for two-minute intervals until they reach that delightful crunch you’re after.

12. Step 12

    Enjoy your homemade kale chips as a healthy snack or a tasty addition to your meals!.
