CINNAMON BUN POPCORN RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Cinnamon Bun Popcorn Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by dinocuties123

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
1/2 cup popcorn kernels
a few dashes of salt
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon cinnamon, or more if desired
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon half & half

Steps:

In a small bowl, mix butter and cinnamon together. Set aside. In a separate small bowl, mix powdered sugar with half & half until smooth. You may have to stir in a little more half & half to get it to drizzling consistency. Set aside. Place oil and popcorn kernels into a large pot. Cover with tight fitting lid or foil. Place pot over high heat. Shake pot back and forth over hot burner to heat kernels evenly. Continue shaking the pot until the popcorn starts to pop. After a minute or two, the popping will slow right down and you'll have a pot full of popcorn. Dump the hot popcorn onto a baking sheet and drizzle with cinnamon butter immediately. Stir to coat. Drizzle the icing over the top and toss to coat as well. Serve warm, or let it cool so the icing can harden up a bit. Recipe notes: It's important to keep the pot moving the entire time it's on the heat - this ensures the kernels don't burn

Tips:

Choose the right popcorn: Use a popcorn kernel that is specifically designed for popping. This will ensure that you get the best results and avoid any unpopped kernels.
Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the popcorn will taste. This is especially true for the butter and sugar.
Don't overcrowd the pot: When popping the popcorn, don't overcrowd the pot. This will prevent the kernels from popping evenly.
Add the cinnamon sugar mixture immediately: Once the popcorn is popped, immediately add the cinnamon sugar mixture. This will help to evenly coat the popcorn and prevent it from becoming soggy.
Store the popcorn properly: Store the popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature. This will help to keep it fresh and prevent it from becoming stale.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon bun popcorn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet and flavorful treat that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack, give cinnamon bun popcorn a try. You won't be disappointed!
