Description

A healthy and yummy snack! Sweet and salty is a perfect combination!

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces, weight Pecans, Toasted And Roughly Chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil, Unrefined
  • ½ cups Popcorn Kernels
  • 1 pinch Kosher Salt To Taste
  • 2 Tablespoons Honey
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter

Preparation

Place whole raw pecans in a dry pan and toast on medium low heat until toasted and fragrant (keep your eye on these so they don’t burn!). Slightly cool and then roughly chop. Set aside and start on the popcorn!

Heat the coconut oil in a deep pot over medium high heat and add one corn kernel. When it pops, you know the oil is hot enough, so add the rest of the kernels forming a single layer. Cover the pot and shake until popcorn is done popping (you will know it’s done when you notice a long pause in between popping).

Toss popcorn with the toasted chopped pecans and season with salt to taste.

In a small sauce pan, melt butter and honey until combined. Drizzle the honey butter over the popcorn and pecans and toss!

Wow – this sounds great! I’m wondering if you could provide some quick guidelines, in the instructions section, for how to toast the pecans? Or do you just use canned pecans? Once you are done with this minor tweak, please click ‘make recipe visible’ and ‘save’ and we’ll get this recipe posted.
Thank you,

Fun recipe! Thank you! I had a see-through cover and my kids really enjoyed watching the popcorn pop. Delicious and fun recipe!

This was delicious and so easy! I happened to have some salad topping pecans, so I used those. Thanks also for the popping on the stove instructions. Since the invention of microwave popcorn, I’d forgotten. I’ll never go back now though. I won’t!
