Sweet Kale Chips

We are in the habit of making salty kale chips (chipotle, lime, salt and onion powder). Our friends at D.I Wine & Dine introduced us to a sweet version. While guests in their home we ate the whole bowl of em' while our hosts went to work.

The recipe is from heartkale blog. OMG it's good! Double the quantities and if you want them very sweet and increase the maple syrup lots.

1 bunch kale
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
1 tablespooon water
1/8 teaspoon salt
pinch cayenne

Remove the kale stems and roughly chop the leaves. Whisk together all the ingredients except for the kale and then pour the dressing over the kale, massaging well for full coverage. Lay the kale on trays and dehydrate at 11o degrees until crispy and fully dry, about 7 hours.

We've made this a few more times and Julie's been just estimating the amounts of ingredients...and the chips have come out even tastier. So feel free to try increasing the amounts of cayenne and nutritional yeast.

Good to know that estimation is even better.
