Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Popcorn kernels
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
Instructions
Place a large heavy-bottomed pot on the stove over medium heat and add the coconut oil.
To test if the oil is hot enough, add 2-3 popcorn kernels into the pot and cover with a lid.
Once these kernels pop, add the remaining popcorn kernels to the pot in an even layer.
Cover the pot with a lid slightly ajar to allow steam to escape without letting the popcorn fall out.
Shake the pot occasionally to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
Once the popcorn popping slows to about 1 pop every 2 seconds, remove the pot from heat and immediately transfer the popcorn into a large bowl.
Sprinkle the Himalayan pink salt over the popcorn and toss to evenly distribute.
Serve warm and enjoy your lightly salted, low-sodium snack!
