NOTE: To ensure that the kale chips do not burn, it's important to keep track often after about 5 minutes. - Take out the oven tray and let the kale chips cool at least for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
To make the kale chips crispy and delicious, it's important to follow the step where you massage the olive oil into the leaves properly. You need to cover every little bit of the leaves with olive oil.
You might think that 2 tablespoons of olive oil might not be enough. But do not use too much olive oil as there's a risk that the kale chips gets too much moisture, which makes it hard to get crispy chips.
If you feel that more olive oil is needed, I can recommend adding drop by drop so you don't use too much.
