Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 0.3333 cup popcorn kernels
- 2 tablespoons raw honey
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
In a large heavy-bottomed pot with a lid, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat until fully melted. Make sure it covers the bottom of the pan evenly.
Add the popcorn kernels to the pot, ensuring they are in a single layer at the bottom. Cover the pot with the lid.
As soon as the popcorn starts to pop, gently shake the pot back and forth on the burner to prevent kernels from burning and to keep the unpopped kernels moving to the heat source.
Once the popping slows to about 1 pop every few seconds, remove the pot from the heat and carefully remove the lid to let the steam escape.
Drizzle the raw honey evenly over the popped popcorn while it is still warm. Immediately sprinkle the sea salt evenly on top.
Gently toss the popcorn using a wooden spoon or by shaking the pot to coat the popcorn evenly with honey and salt.
Allow the popcorn to cool slightly before serving to give the honey a chance to set and become less sticky.
