Ingedients

  • 4 Tbsp (1/4 cup) oil
  • 4 Tbsp white sugar
  • 8 Tbsp (1/2 cup) popcorn kernels
  • 2 Tbsp melted butter
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

Heat the oil in a 3-quart saucepan on medium high heat. If you are using coconut oil, allow all of the solid oil to melt.

Put 3 or 4 popcorn kernels into the oil and cover the pan. When the kernels pop, add the rest of the popcorn kernels in an even layer. Cover, remove from heat and count 30 seconds.

Return the pan to the heat. Add sugar.  Shake the pan by moving it back and forth over the burner. The popcorn should begin popping soon, and all at once.

Try to keep the lid slightly ajar to let the steam from the popcorn release (the popcorn will be drier and crisper).

Once the popping slows to several seconds between pops, remove the pan from the heat, remove the lid, drizzle butter and salt, shake and dump the popcorn immediately into a wide bowl.
