Ingredients

• 1/3 cup Popcorn (unpopped kernels)
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup Cornmeal
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 1/2 cup Milk
• 1/3 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup Butter (melted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set aside.

Step 2

Pop the popcorn kernels. You should end up with approximately 7-8 cups of popped popcorn. Let it cool slightly, then pulse it in a food processor until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Measure out 2 cups of ground popcorn for the recipe.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground popcorn, all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir to combine.

Step 4

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Greek yogurt, and melted butter until smooth.

Step 5

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender bread.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your homemade popcorn bread with butter, honey, or your favorite spreads!
