- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) to ensure a slow and even bake.
Wash and thoroughly dry the kale leaves using a salad spinner or by patting them with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the kale pieces with the extra virgin olive oil. Toss well to ensure all the leaves are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the sea salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and ground black pepper over the kale. Toss again to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Arrange the seasoned kale in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Remove the kale chips from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy the sugar-free crispy kale as a healthy snack or a crunchy topping for salads and soups.
