Kettle Corn

This kettle corn is the perfect sweet and salty treat. It's only 4 ingredients, and a few minutes to make and you'll be snacking on this tasty treat in no time!

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup refined coconut oil (can sub vegetable oil)
  • 1/2 cup popcorn kernels
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, and set it aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot over medium high heat.
  • Add three kernels of popcorn to the oil. Once the kernels pop, the oil is hot enough.
  • Add the remaining popcorn kernels, and shake the pan for about 10 seconds to help the kernels warm up.
  • Pour the sugar over the kernels stir them together.
  • Once the popcorn starts popping, shake the pan almost constantly to keep the bottom of the pan from burning as much as possible.
  • Let the popcorn pop until the popping just slows down, about 1 to 2 seconds between pops.
  • Transfer the popcorn to the prepared baking pan.
  • Sprinkle over the top with the salt.
  • Let the popcorn cool for a couple minutes.
  • Remove any burnt or unpopped kernels.
