Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Rinse the spinach leaves thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture. Ensuring the spinach is completely dry is crucial for achieving crispy chips.
Place the dried spinach leaves in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the spinach and sprinkle with a dash of salt.
Gently toss the spinach leaves with your hands or a pair of tongs to ensure each leaf is evenly coated with olive oil and salt.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Spread the spinach leaves in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to help the chips bake evenly.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 10-15 minutes, checking occasionally. The spinach leaves should become crispy and slightly darkened but not burnt. Oven times may vary, so keep a close eye to prevent overcooking.
Once the spinach chips are crispy, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Allow the chips to cool slightly on the baking sheet for a few minutes.
Transfer the cooled spinach chips to a serving bowl or plate. Enjoy immediately as a healthy and delightful snack.
Tips:
- Make sure the spinach leaves are completely dry before baking to ensure they become crispy.
- Spread the spinach leaves in a single layer on the baking sheet to avoid overlap, which can result in uneven baking.
- Monitor the spinach chips closely during the baking process to prevent them from burning.
- Feel free to experiment with additional seasonings such as garlic powder, onion powder, or a sprinkle of parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
Baking your own spinach chips is a quick and healthy way to satisfy your snack cravings. With just a few ingredients and simple steps, you can enjoy a tasty and nutritious treat. Remember to dry the spinach thoroughly, spread the leaves evenly, and keep an eye on them as they bake for the best results.
