Be sure to remove kale stems as they do not crisp up
Olive oil is completely optional. It does add flavor and crunch.
If kale is not crispy after cooking time, place basket back in air fryer and cook for another 2-3 minutes

How Do You Keep Leftover Kale Chips Crunchy?

Be sure to let them cool completely. Then store them in an air-tight container for 2-3 days. Also, if you add a little bit of dried rice to the container, it will help to absorb any moisture and keep the chips crisp.

Does Making Kale Chips Destroy the Nutrients?

Thankfully, no. Cooked any method, kale chips retain all their nutrients in a densely-packed, delicious chip. This makes them an ideal snack for health-conscious eaters.

Should You Wash Kale in Vinegar?

No need to wash kale leaves in anything specific, like vinegar. Just regular water will clean a bunch of kale and get it ready for cooking.
