Popcorn. A no-fight food. Children welcome it. Peace in the house. Happy. Here is our very simple, 5-ingredient recipe to jazz up your next bowl. We pour this drizzle on two batches of air-popped corn, but if you want an extra tasty, gooey treat, you can use it on one batch.
Nut Butter & Honey Popcorn
About 12 servings
1 to 2 batches air popped corn
(or however you like to pop yours)
(or however you like to pop yours)1/3 cup nut butter (we like peanut)
1/3 cup extra virgin coconut oil
or ghee
(this makes the sauce nice and drizzly so it disperses evenly over the popcorn)
or ghee (this makes the sauce nice and drizzly so it disperses evenly over the popcorn)1/4 honey (local, raw is best)
1/2 teaspoon celtic sea salt
- Start the popcorn. While the corn is popping, in a small cast iron skillet
, soften the nut butter over medium heat. Turn heat off and stir in coconut oil and honey until all melted and well combined (I add the honey and oil after the heat is off to try and preserve as many enzymes as possible in them. Since we use roasted peanut butter, we choose to heat that up first).
- The popcorn should be done popping right as the drizzle is ready. Drizzle over popcorn, then sprinkle sea salt over popcorn.
Sounds yummy! Is this an "eat outside only" treat? :)

ReplyDeleteThis sounds so good! We make the same thing (with the coconut oil), only without the nut butter. We have nut allergies but I'll bet we could make it with sunflower butter. Ours is good, but yours sounds even better! :)

ReplyDeleteHOLY HEAVEN! YUM! It turned out great! I used one cup popcorn kernels. I think next time I'll double the nut butter and honey so it's even more drenched. Oh so good! Thanks for the great recipe Katie!

oh how I wish my weird kids like peanut butter (can you believe that??? me either!) this sounds just heavenly and a wonderful way to get more coconut oil in the diet!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good - what a treat! I always love finding ways to give my family more coconut oil!
ReplyDeleteYUM! Made this today for my son. He is hooked. Great discovery for us! Thanks for sharing. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh what a treat! I think we will have this for desert tonight! Thanks for sharing, I saw this at SLT.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds wonderful, right after I post this I'm off to the kitchen to whip up a batch. If I'm feeling really generous I may even share some with my family :)
ReplyDeleteI just made this and it is very tasty, I am a huge fan of coconut oil.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how it would be if I added a tsp of cocoa or carob powder next time?
i made this as well this evening. totally fabulous!
ReplyDeleteSounds great!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds and looks so nice! I am definitely going to make some. Thank you for sharing on Eat Nourishing!

ReplyDeleteI just made this for an afternoon snack for my son and I. It was sticky on his little toddler hands but oh so yummy! It's a pretty big batch, so I split some into tupperware. I hope it keeps well.
ReplyDeleteI made this two nights ago using almond butter. It was fantastic!
ReplyDeleteA-MAZING!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a college student who's used to whole foods but I've had to be constricted to no kitchen, a meal plan and limited budget (talk about destructive meal options - college campuses are so difficult!)... I had these ingredients in my dorm room and made it for the first time this evening. This snack may single-handedly save my sanity! Thank you!!!
I'm so glad you liked it! It's so hard finding healthy options as a college student. I remember. Good on ya for doing it! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is amazingly delicious!!! wow!!! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I made it for the first time tonight and my husband couldn't stop eating it. I am looking forward to my kids coming home and introducing them to it. Great snack :D
ReplyDeleteI printed this recipes months ago and just tried it today. WOW! It's so good!!!! Wish I would have tried it sooner : ) We enjoyed it so much that we made a batch for our neighbors. Some things are so good that you have to share them immediately.
