Ingredients

• 4 cups Pork rinds (unsalted and plain, for keto popcorn substitute)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated erythritol sweetener
• 3 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Sea salt
• 0.25 cup Chopped pecans (optional, for added crunch)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare your workspace by laying out a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.

Step 2

Place the pork rinds in a large mixing bowl. If the pieces are too large, break them into bite-sized chunks to mimic the texture of popcorn.

Step 3

In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 4

Once the butter has melted, add the granulated erythritol sweetener. Stir constantly to avoid burning until the sweetener has dissolved completely, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the heavy cream while whisking continuously. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for 5-7 minutes until it thickens slightly and turns a golden toffee color.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt. If using chopped pecans, add them to the toffee mixture at this stage.

Step 7

Quickly and carefully pour the toffee mixture over the pork rinds in the bowl. Use a spatula to gently toss and coat the pork rinds until they are evenly covered in the toffee mixture.

Step 8

Spread the coated pork rinds evenly across the prepared baking sheet. Allow them to cool and the toffee to set for about 30 minutes.

Step 9

Once the toffee is firm, break the Keto Toffee Popcorn into clusters and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
