    Kale chips have been my latest go-to snack. They satisfy my craving for something crunchy.

    I love that I can down a whole bunch of kale in one sitting without feeling like I am trying to do something healthy. My daily green drink on the other hand, sometimes feels forced.

    Other recipes with sriracha are my Sriracha Tofu Fries and Homemade Sriracha Hummus.

    Other vegan snacks you might like are my Sriracha Roasted Chickpeas, Baked Vegan Onion Rings, and Baked Tofu Fries.

    ❤️ Why You'll Love Them

    • They're healthy and crunchy. Eat them in place of potato chips.
    • They're a great way to sneak in veggies.
    • They are spicy and flavorful.

    🧾 Ingredients

    Sriracha kale chips ingredients on a cutting board with labels.
    • Kale leaves: I prefer the curly varieties. You could use whatever variety you want.
    • Nutritional yeast: Adds a cheesy flavor. You could also try store-bought vegan parmesan.
    • Sriracha sauce: Adds spice.
    • Olive oil: Coats the kale and helps distribute the nutritional yeast.
    • Salt: Enhances flavors. I like to use sea salt.

    Step 5: Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until crispy.

    Should I Remove The Stems?

    Yes, you'll want to remove the stems, including the center rib. They are tough and chewy.

    How to Remove The Stems

    Using a knife, cut right next to the stem on both sides. You can also hold the leaf in your hand and strip the leaves off away from you.

    👩🏻‍🍳 Recipe FAQs

    Why are they not crispy?

    If your kale chips aren't crispy, you need to bake them longer.

    How do you keep them crispy?

    If you store kale chips in an airtight container they'll stay crispy. Do NOT put them in the fridge.

    What type of kale should I use?

    You can use any variety of kale you want. I prefer any of the curly varieties.

    How long do kale chips last?

    These will last for about a week in an airtight container in the pantry.
