Servings: 3 servings
Calories: 13.35kcal
Ingredients
- 1 bunch of kale
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- dash of salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Wash your kale and remove the bulky spines, as they won't cook up nearly as well, and then stack the leaf-halves up and— keeping them stacked together— and fold them in half, crumbling them until they're flexible. Then cut the stack of softened leaves apart; each leaf should end up cut about 10 times (fewer cuts will mean larger chips, and vice versa).
- Carefully dry your kale and then arrange it in a single layer on one or two baking sheets, drizzle on the coconut oil, and bake for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, measure out the honey and mince the garlic (you can use ½ teaspoon garlic powder instead, if tolerated), and then stir the honey, minced garlic, and salt into a chunky paste.
- Take out your wilted kale and carefully brush on the honey mixture, then bake for 15-17 minutes more still in a single layer. Your chips are done when crispy and just starting to brown.
Notes
What to Pair. Serve this side with something savory! I recommend having it with a baked root vegetable, like carrots or sweet potato, and a more plain protein, like chicken or pork.
How Much Salt. I recommend no more than ⅛ teaspoon for the whole batch, because the honey and the garlic will sort of enhance the salt flavor, but you may want more or less.
