Maple Collard Greens
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves or garlic scapes, finely chopped
¼ – ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 bunch collard greens, stems removed, sliced into thin strips (¼-inch thick)
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon maple syrup
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds, stirring frequently. Add the collards greens and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until they are wilted and starting to brown along the edges, about 3 to 6 minutes. Stir in the apple cider vinegar and maple syrup and cook for one minute more, then serve!
