We love having people over for game nights or movies and this is the perfect no fuss snack to bust out and everyone is so impressed that its homemade with real butter. It tastes so much better than the microwavable kind.
Here is what you need:
- Non GMO popcorn kernels
- Coconut or Olive oil (I prefer coconut and I do think it has a slightly different taste)
- Real Butter
- Salt
Here is how you do it:
- Melt appx 1 tbsp coconut oil (or heat olive oil) in medium to large sauce pan.
- Almost cover the bottom of the pan with popcorn kernels (appx 1/4 cup) roll the seeds around to coat them with oil.
- Cover pan and let pop. Shake pan occasionally to prevent burning and keep unpopped kernels on the bottom. (if the pan starts filling quickly you can dump some in a bowl while the rest pop)
- Once popcorn is popped, get it out of that hot pan and into a large bowl.
- Turn off flame and put as much or as little butter in hot pan until melted.
- Pour melted butter over popcorn and shake around. Add salt to taste.
Thats it!
I have a gas range and use a high flame. I have tried making it on electric and have a harder time, but I'm not used to cooking that way so if you are, I'm am sure it will work for you just fine. The more you do it the easier it will be.
Enjoy!
