For my final ladies' night post (at least for now), I decided to make something no movie is complete without - popcorn! I love popcorn. It's one of my favorite snacks. I bought an air popper a few years ago and I love that thing. I love salty popcorn and sweet kettle corn equally, so I though I'd see what happened when I combined the salty and the sweet together.
Maple & Sea Salt Popcorn
1/2 C unpopped popcorn kernels
1 Tbsp vegan butter
1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
Sea salt to taste
Pop your popcorn in an air popper, or on the stove. Melt the vegan butter in the microwave, and then whisk in the maple syrup. Pour over the top of the warm popcorn and shake. Add sea salt to taste.
This was amazing! Kind of like eating waffles for a snack or eating popcorn for breakfast. Basically the perfect combination of sweet and salty. I think I have a new favorite popcorn flavor combo! I could barely take these photos because I kept sneaking handfuls. It you are a fan of salty and sweet flavors together I highly recommend this tasty snack for your next party or movie night.
What are your favorite popcorn flavors or toppings?
P.S. Sorry for these less than stellar photos. Other food bloggers - are you having trouble with your photos too now that we are loosing hours of daylight?
Thanks for stopping by!
growing up, i would DRENCH popcorn in butter and salt. i loved it. this sounds a little healthier and i love the addition of maple syrup.
ReplyDeleteMe too! The maple just adds a little something extra fun. :)
DeleteYour photos still look good to me, but I've been having trouble with the lack of daylight, too. I've been trying to make more of my recipes on the weekends since it's dark by the time I get home on weekdays.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Weekend cooking and baking is my usual strategy too. :)
Deletewhat a great idea. This sounds crazy, crazy good. I have an airpopper too, and I love it so much. My mom found it for me at the thrift store!
ReplyDeleteand yes, the reduced daylight is really making photography harder! UGH.
Thanks! The air poppers are really so amazing.
DeleteI love both salty and sweet popcorn so I'm sure I would be all over this stuff! It looks and sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It totally is, I've made it 3 more times already. :)
DeleteI am so all over that sweet & salty combo - brilliant!
ReplyDeleteLately I have been scheduling pictures around the day light hours :)
Thanks! I've been aiming to do more photos on the weekends when I have more daylight hours! :)
