Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1/3 cup Organic popcorn kernels
- 3/4 cup Coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup Full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Raw honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Baking soda
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.
Add the popcorn kernels to the pot, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and shake the pot gently to coat the kernels in oil.
Continue cooking the popcorn, shaking the pot occasionally to prevent burning, until the popping slows to about 2 seconds between pops. Remove the pot from the heat.
Transfer the popped popcorn to a large mixing bowl, making sure to remove any unpopped kernels. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the coconut sugar, coconut milk, raw honey, and the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring continuously to prevent burning.
Once boiling, allow the mixture to cook for 3-4 minutes until it slightly thickens and takes on the consistency of a toffee sauce.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, sea salt, and baking soda. The mixture will bubble slightly; stir until smooth.
Quickly pour the toffee sauce over the popcorn in the mixing bowl, and use a silicone spatula to gently stir and coat the popcorn evenly.
Spread the coated popcorn onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spreading it out evenly to prevent clumps.
Let the popcorn cool completely at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes. The toffee will harden as it cools.
Once cooled, break the toffee popcorn into clusters and serve immediately, or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
