Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, and set it aside.
Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium high heat. 3 TBS refined coconut oil
Add three kernels of popcorn to the oil. Let all the kernels pop, to show the oil is hot enough.
Add the remaining popcorn kernels, and shake the pan for about 10 seconds to help the kernels warm up. 1/3 cup popcorn kernels
Pour the granulated sugar and salt over the kernels and stir them together. 2.5 TBS granulated sugar, 1/4 tsp salt
Cover the pan loosely with a lid, and once the popcorn starts popping, shake the pan every 5 to 10 seconds 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.
Pour the popcorn out on the prepared baking pan.
Sprinkle additional salt over the top of the popcorn.
Let the popcorn cool for a couple minutes.
Remove any burnt or unpopped kernels, and enjoy!
