Tuscan Kale Chips

These homemade Tuscan kale crisps are a revelation for anyone looking for a lighter, more nutritious alternative to traditional crisps. Known also as cavolo nero, this dark, earthy brassica takes on a wonderfully delicate and shattered texture once baked at a low temperature. They provide a satisfyingly savoury crunch that highlights the natural nuttiness of the leaves without the need for heavy seasoning or artificial additives.

As a versatile vegan snack, these crisps are perfect for guilt-free grazing or as a sophisticated garnish for autumn soups and risotto. Because they involve just two main ingredients and minimal preparation, they are a brilliant addition to any healthy eating routine. For the best results, ensure the leaves are completely dry before oiling to achieve that signature brittle finish.
