Easy Coconut Oil Popcorn
Yields: 3 servings
 
This easy popcorn is low in calories, full of fiber, and has a very faint coconut flavor. Leftovers will stay fresh for at least 4 days if stored in an airtight container.
  • ½ tsp coconut oil
  • ½ cup (70g) popcorn kernels
  • ½ tsp salt
  1. Add the coconut oil to a large pot, and melt over medium-low heat. Add 3 popcorn kernels, and cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid. Continue to cook, shaking the pot back and forth every 3 seconds, until all 3 kernels pop. Remove the pot from the heat, and carefully take out the 3 popcorn pieces with tongs.
  2. Add the remaining popcorn kernels to the pot, and place the lid back on top. Continue to cook, shaking the pot back and forth every 3 seconds, until more than 3 seconds elapse between pops. Immediately remove the pot from the heat, and pour the popcorn into a bowl. Sprinkle with the salt.
Notes: Any oil or butter may be used in place of the coconut oil.
