Ingredients
- 3 cups Pork rinds
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 3 tablespoons Erythritol
- 2 tablespoons Sugar-free honey-flavored syrup
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing a large bowl where you'll toss the popcorn. Measure 3 cups of pork rinds and place them within the bowl. Break any large pieces into smaller, bite-sized pieces if necessary.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Once melted, add 3 tablespoons of erythritol. Stir until the erythritol is fully dissolved, forming a smooth syrup.
Step 3
Add 2 tablespoons of sugar-free honey-flavored syrup into the butter and erythritol mixture. Stir continuously to combine the flavors.
Step 4
Stir in 0.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 0.25 teaspoons of salt with the mixture. Ensure all ingredients are thoroughly combined and let it simmer for another minute until slightly thickened.
Step 5
Immediately pour the sweet syrup over the pork rinds in the bowl. Gently toss the pork rinds until they are evenly coated with the mixture.
Step 6
Transfer the coated pork rinds onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spreading them out evenly so they can cool without sticking together.
Step 7
Allow the 'kettle corn' to cool completely. This will help the coating harden slightly, giving it a more authentic kettle corn crunch.
Step 8
Serve the keto kettle corn immediately, or store it in an airtight container for up to a day to maintain its freshness and crunch.
