Harvesttime means big bunches of kale from local farmers. These crunchy kale chips are delicious, super healthy and easy to make. I season them to take the flavor up a notch. For extra zip, add a dash of cayenne pepper.

Air-frying Tip
Depending on the type of air fryer you’re using, you may need only a light spritz of cooking spray on the bottom grate to help the food brown. however, if you find your food sticking, reapply the spray in between batches.
