Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 cups Popped popcorn
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons Granulated erythritol or low-carb sweetener
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a large saucepan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat until melted.
Add the erythritol or low-carb sweetener to the melted coconut oil and stir continuously until it begins to dissolve. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
Once the sweetener is dissolved, quickly add the popped popcorn to the pan. Stir continuously with a wooden spoon to ensure the popcorn is evenly coated with the sweetened oil mixture.
Sprinkle salt evenly over the popcorn and continue to stir to combine all the flavors.
Allow the popcorn to sit for a minute in the pan to slightly caramelize, but be careful not to let it burn.
Remove from heat and transfer the kettle corn to a large bowl. Let it cool for a few minutes to achieve maximum crunchiness.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb classic kettle corn!
