Burned my third batch of kale chips before I figured out the real trick on a Sunday afternoon

I kept getting these sad, soggy kale chips (or burnt ones) for like two months. Then my neighbor saw me pulling out a tray and just laughed. She said I was crowding the basket too much. So last Sunday I tried putting the kale in a single layer with no overlap (took two batches instead of one) and they came out perfectly crispy in 6 minutes at 350. Has anyone else had that 'wait, that's it?' moment with a simple fix?

Kale chips were my white whale for months too. It's wild how something as simple as not overlapping them makes all the difference.
