Ingredients
- 1 tsp avocado oil
- 1 tsp white miso paste
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 0.5 tsp gluten-free tamari
- 1 large bunch green or Tuscan kale, deveined and torn
- 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line one or two baking sheets (depending how much kale you have) with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix the avocado oil, miso, maple syrup, and tamari. Add the kale leaves and use your hands to massage the oil mixture into the leaves, ensuring they are well covered.
- Transfer the kale to the baking sheets, making sure to not overcrowd the leaves (otherwise they won't crisp up). Bake for 30 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway, until crisp. Turn the oven off and leave the sheets inside for another 5 minutes before removing. Allow to cool, then sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
