Kale Chips. Doesn’t sound so appetizing does it? Well, don’t judge a recipe by just it’s name. These are absolutely wonderful. Not to mention they are LOADED with vitamins and minerals. Yes, they are good for you and they taste unbelievable.
These are light, but buttery and crispy. They absolutely melt in your mouth, and with just a hint of salt, they are perfect. See for yourself. From start to finish these only take about 15 minutes and worth every minute.
A nice alternative is to crush the Kale Chips and mix them in with homemade popcorn.
If you aren’t convinced yet…my five year old loved them.
- kale, washed, stemmed and torn in pieces
- 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Take the kale stem and pull leaves from stem. Then, tear into pieces and wash in a salad spinner.
- Once you have them dried and ready, place in a large bowl and drizzle oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss well.
- Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Cook in the oven at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Do not overcook. They will get dark brown and taste bitter.
I prefer a fine sea salt in this recipe, like Redmond Real Salt.

What temp?
Sorry! I added it, it is 350 degrees for 10 minutes or so.
Kelly! Thank you for posting this! A friend of mine had made these and she talked me into making them! They are so delicious!
How do you store them though? Unfortunately, the ones I made I put in a tupperware and they were all soggy and gross the next day!
What should I have done differently?
Thanks Kelly! I love this website!
Mandy – I don’t think you can store them, I think you have to eat them as you make them. I never have enough leftover to try it!
Kelly, I have been thinking of making these. It is highly recommended for MS. So, I have to giggle I was looking quickly down the recipe and pictures. When I went whoa ….Kale chips give you man hands……Those can’t be Kelly’s hands? Then I remembered sometimes your sweet husband helps 🙂 Just giggling…… See ya at church ! Thanks for the recipe.
