How to make Nettle Crisps

There’s Nettle Soup and Nettle Beer but what about Nettle Crisps? Cheap and easy to make as well as a healthy alternative to packet crisps.

This recipe uses nutritional yeast, which we have seen used in vegan recipes. It can be found online and in Tesco, Holland and Barrett.  It has a nutty, almost cheesy umami flavour.
