Preheat oven to 350°F.

Rinse the kale leaves under cold water, and pat them dry with a towel. Pull the leaves from the stalk by holding tightly onto the end and running your hand up the sides of the stem. You can also just cut the stem out.

Roughly chop the kale into large pieces, and place them in a large mixing bowl. Top the kale with the melted coconut oil, and massage the oil gently into the pieces of kale, spreading it evenly over all of the leaves.

Arrange the kale in a single layer onto two baking sheets, and sprinkle them with garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper to taste.

Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the kale becomes crispys
