Ingredients

  • 1 bunch fresh basil leaves
  • olive oil cooking spray or mister
  • coarse sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325° and line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Rinse the basil leaves well to get off any dirt or debris. Pat them well between two towels so they are dried completely.
  • Spritz with olive oil {or cooking spray} and sprinkle with sea salt.
  • Bake the basil leaves for 5 to 8 minutes or until crispy. Larger leaves do take longer so I would recommend removing the smaller leaves and place the sheet pan back in for a few minutes or divide the leaves among two sheet pans, one for smaller leaves and one of larger leaves.
  • The basil leave will crisp up as they sit so allow them to cool for a minute or two before snacking.
