Honey Cajun Popcorn

Course Snack

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) melted salted butter
  • ½ cup (125 mL) popping corn
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) honey
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) Cajun blackening spice
  • ¾ tsp (3.75 mL) fine salt

Instructions

  • Heat the vegetable oil and butter in a large pot with 3 kernels of popping corn until all 3 pop. Remove the 3 pieces of popped corn.
  • Add the popping corn to the pot, and stir until each kernel is coated with oil. Add the honey, stir again, then cover with a lid and leave on high heat. Once popping begins, start shaking the pot and continue until the popping accelerates. Then turn off the heat and continue to shake until popping stops. Remove the lid and allow the popped corn to release steam and become crispy.
  • Transfer to a large mixing bowl and toss with the Cajun blackening spice and salt. Serve immediately.
