CINNAMON-SUGAR POPCORN

I first tried this when I was visiting my sister in West Virginia. After trying it, I loved it, however I neglected to ask her for the recipe. 10 years later, I have it, and I still love it! The kids can help make it if you use an air popper (which I did to reduce fat and calories...there's enough in the butter!) I used my deep dish lasagna pan to cook it in the oven. You can use a roasting pan or any other large, deep dish pan. It makes a lot, so either invite your friends or store it in an airtight container for later.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh cinnamon sticks. Ground cinnamon will not provide the same depth of flavor.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can use the cold water test to check if the sugar syrup is ready. Drop a small amount of the syrup into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, the syrup is ready.
  • Be careful not to overcook the cinnamon poppers. They should be cooked until they are golden brown and crispy, but not hard.
  • Serve the cinnamon poppers warm with your favorite dipping sauce. Caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, or whipped cream are all great options.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon poppers are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover cinnamon sticks. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of cinnamon poppers that will be enjoyed by everyone.
