10 Cups

Ingredients

  1. 1/3 Cup popping corn kernels (Non-GMO)
  2. 60 ml Coconut oil
  3. Salt or seasoning of choice

Method

  1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add a few popcorn pips and wait until it pops, then quickly remove.
  2. Add remaining popcorn, and put to the side and shake and spread corn out evenly for a few minutes. Return to heat without lid fully covered. Once the popcorn starts popping in earnest, shake the pot gently once.
  3. Remove from heat when the popping stops (when you can count to 3 between pops) and transfer to a (very!) large bowl. You need10 cups of popcorn

Notes

Can be sweetened with coconut sugar caramel. First preheat the oven at 110 ° C. To make the caramel after popcorn has popped heat up 100 ml of coconut oil, 1 cup coconut sugar and ½ cup honey in large pot until dissolved and thickens, once bubbles appear simmer for 4 min and DO NOT STIR. Remove from heat add ½ tsp salt, 1 tsp vanilla and ½ tsp baking powder and whisk until foam appears. Add popcorn and stir with wooden spoon until coated. Transfer to two lined baking trays and bake for 40 min tossing every 10 minutes to make sure popcorn is evenly coated. Remove from oven to cool and enjoy!! Popcorn stays fresh and crisp for up to 3 weeks!
