Guilt Free Caramel Popcorn


Netflix and chill are not the same without popcorn.  I'm not typically someone who goes for caramel popcorn, I usually opt for buttery, salty goodness. But this twist on caramel popcorn is so yummy, even the savoury addicts won't be able to resist. And the best part is, it's actually quite good for you!

Coconut sugar, for those of you who haven't tried this sugar alternative yet, has a warm caramel flavour.  Although relatively low in nutrients, coconut sugar is packed with potassium. Eat up to minimise post workout cramps.  

TIME: 10 mins
SERVES: 2 people

INGREDIENTS: 

1/2 cup pop corn kernels 
75 grams butter OR 2 tbs coconut oil
1 heaped tbs coconut sugar 

METHOD: 

Pop the kernels, either with an air popper, or in a heated pan.  You should get a large bowl of popcorn out of this!

In a small pan, over a low heat, melt the butter or coconut oil and whisk in the coconut sugar until dissolved.  

Pour over the popcorn and mix in.  

Enjoy!
