Ingredients
- 1 cup Popcorn kernels
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil or neutral cooking oil
- 0.25 teaspoons White pepper (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil or neutral cooking oil.
Step 2
Place 2-3 popcorn kernels in the pot to test the heat. Once those kernels pop, add the remaining 1 cup of popcorn kernels in an even layer.
Step 3
Immediately cover the pot with a lid, leaving a small crack to let steam escape. Shake the pot gently every 10-15 seconds to prevent burning.
Step 4
Once the popping slows to 2-3 seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat and keep the lid on until the popping fully stops.
Step 5
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter.
Step 6
Add 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1 teaspoon of salt to the melted butter. Stir until fully dissolved and combined. If desired, add a pinch of white pepper for a subtle kick.
Step 7
Drizzle the butter mixture evenly over the freshly popped popcorn. Toss well to coat every kernel thoroughly.
Step 8
Serve immediately in a large bowl, or store in an airtight container if saving for later. Enjoy your Popcorn Butter Supreme!
