Step 2
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine honey, almond butter, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
Step 3
Stir continuously while the mixture heats up, making sure everything blends smoothly.
Step 4
Once all ingredients are well combined, turn off the heat and stir in the coconut oil until fully melted and incorporated.
Step 5
Pour the warm honey mixture over the popcorn in a large mixing bowl, stirring gently to evenly coat all popcorn pieces.
Step 6
Once the popcorn has cooled enough to handle but is still warm, quickly shape the mixture into balls using your hands. If sticky, lightly grease your hands with coconut oil.
