Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (100g) popcorn kernels
- 3 tbsp (45ml) coconut oil
- 1 tsp (6g) fine sea salt
- 4 tbsp (56g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp (15ml) honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp (3g) garlic powder
Instructions:
- Place the coconut oil and exactly three kernels into a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
- Wait for the three kernels to pop to ensure the oil has reached the ideal popping temperature.
- Pour in the remaining popcorn kernels and cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Remove the pot from the heat for 30 seconds to stagger the popping process.
- Return the pot to the heat and shake gently until the pops slow to 2 seconds apart.
- Immediately pour the popped corn into a large mixing bowl and let it sit for 60 seconds to allow steam to escape.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey (or maple syrup), and garlic powder until emulsified.
- Drizzle the glaze over the popcorn in a steady stream while simultaneously tossing the popcorn with a spatula.
- Sprinkle the fine sea salt over the popcorn during the final toss to ensure uniform adhesion.
