Today I received a large bag of Kale in my Abel and Cole Veg Box.
So I made some crisps!
I can’t stop eating them. (Must save some for my daughter…)

To make your own…

you will need:
1 large bag of Curly Kale
1 tablespoon Marmite or similar yeast extract spread.
2 tablespoons Olive oil/Coconut Oil (or similar)
Few dashes of GF Soy Sauce (this is not absolutely necessary so for those who avoid legumes omit at your will).
1 tablespoon of ground almonds.

Skim off the beautiful green leaves from the thick central stalk of the Kale and please leaves in a large bowl.

Mix the rest of the ingredients together and pour/scoop over Kale. Then mix mix mix! Ensure every last leaf is coated with your salty mixture.
Then spread out onto a baking sheet ( i used two as you want to spread the leaves out in one layer.) and bake in a very very cool oven. Mine was at the lowest setting I could manage but all ovens vary.. try around 70 degrees c.

The time they take to ‘dehydrate’ also varies – but ensure you don’ burn them. Keep checking them and tasting!

I put mine in for around 45mins to an hour.

Yum. They will keep in a zip lock bag or tupperware for a couple of days but good luck with that. Mine are disappearing fast.
