Ingredients

• ½ cup popcorn kernels

• 3 -5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or melted butter

• 1 tablespoon unrefined coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil (stove top version)

• ½ teaspoon fine sea salt

• Seasoning:

  • 1-2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • Or 1-2 Tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

• Toppings:

  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast

  • Or ¼ cup hard grated cheese like Parmesan or Romano

Directions

Instructions Air Popper:

• Pop the popcorn kernels with an air popper into a large bowl.

• Drizzle with the olive oil or melted butter.

• Mix the nutritional yeast and salt together and sprinkle over popcorn and toss to coat.

Instructions Stove Top:

• Add a tablespoon of the coconut oil to a 3-5 quart heavy-bottomed pot with a cover. Add 3 kernels of un-popped corn and heat over medium heat with cover on.

• Melt the butter if using, in a small pan on low while you pop the corn.

• When your three test kernels have popped, your pan is the right temp, remove from heat and add the rest of the kernels.

• Return the lid and return over medium heat, shaking the pot frequently using pot mitts to keep the lid on until there are a few seconds between pops and most have popped.

Finishing Touches Either Way:

• Drizzle butter or oil on top a little at a time. Sprinkle on your toppings and seasoning a little at a time, toss and repeat until all toppings are used up.

• Enjoy right away or allow to cool just a few minutes and then store in an airtight container for several days.
