Air Fryer

Ingredients

½ bunch kale about 4 to 5 ounce
½ tablespoon olive oil
⅛ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Wash kale and pat dry thoroughly. Cut the leaves away from the spine and tear into bit size pieces.
Add olive oil and salt and mix with your hands to make sure that it is thoroughly combined.
Pre heat air fryer to 375°F. When hot, add kale into the basket, without overlapping too much.
Air Fry for 4 to 5 minutes, shaking the pan once or twice in between to crisp evenly. Keep a close eye on them after 3 minutes ( they will crisp up really fast in the last couple of minutes). They are done when crisp.
Season with more salt or your favorite seasonings and enjoy!

Notes

Tear chips a little larger – They will shrink some after air frying, so tear them a little larger than you want your chips to be.

Use the right amount of oil – Excess oil might make them soggy and not crispy.

Keep a close eye on them. These cook fast! They can crisp up in as little as 3 minutes or sometimes take up to 5 minutes. Keep a close eye after the 3 minute mark.

Cook 1 bunch – Simply cook in two batches.
