Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Plain popcorn kernels
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a large pot with a tight-fitting lid, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
Add 2-3 popcorn kernels to the pot and cover with the lid. Once these kernels pop, the oil is ready.
Add the remaining popcorn kernels in an even layer and cover the pot. Shake the pot gently to ensure the kernels are evenly coated in oil.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and allow the popcorn to pop. Shake the pot occasionally to prevent burning. Once the popping slows to about 2 seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat.
Transfer the popcorn to a large mixing bowl and set aside.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the ground cinnamon, granulated sugar, and salt until fully combined.
Pour the cinnamon-sugar butter mixture over the popcorn and toss well to coat evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious cinnamon popcorn!
