Categories     dessert

Time 8m

Yield 3 1/2 to 4 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 tablespoons peanut oil
3 ounces popcorn kernels, approximately 1/2 cup

12 BEST POPCORN RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS

Estimated Reading Time 4 mins
  • Rainbow Popcorn. For a fun activity the kids will enjoy, try this easy colorful popcorn recipe. Try making a few different batches with a rainbow of colors for a pretty platter that will brighten up any party or make eyes pop if you give them as gifts.
  • Truffle Popcorn. Turn movie night or any time into a decadent experience by adding truffle salt to your stovetop-popped corn. This flavorful condiment can get pricey, but a little goes a long way.
  • Peanut Butter Popcorn. Coating popcorn in a sweet mixture of honey, creamy peanut butter, and corn syrup creates a delicious treat. It makes an excellent gift for teachers (assuming your class doesn't have any peanut allergies), a bake sale addition, or as a homemade holiday present.
  • Copycat Moose Munch. Some call it moose munch, some call it muddy sneakers, others call it a totally different name, but this blend of toasted nuts and popcorn covered in caramel and chocolate hits the spot no matter what you name it.
  • Zebra Popcorn. We call this zebra popcorn because it gets drizzled with both white and dark chocolate after a sweet caramel coating. You can use pre-popped or microwave popcorn instead of stovetop or air popping it, but make sure to get just plain or salted so it doesn't compete with the topping.
  • Fruity Popcorn. The bright colors and fruity flavor in this unique candy-coated popcorn comes from Jell-O, so you have a wide array to choose from. Salted peanuts adds a nice contrast to the sweet popcorn, but you can leave them out if you don't love nuts or need to be allergy-conscious.
  • Candy Cane Popcorn. For a minty treat that tastes just like the holidays, reach for this candy cane popcorn. It uses crushed candy canes and white chocolate for that fresh and sweet flavor, and makes a delectable party snack or an edible gift.
  • Quick Cheddar Popcorn. Make cheesy popcorn with real grated cheese instead of that electric orange fake stuff for a more assertive, real cheddar flavor.
  • Green Caramel Corn. Whether you need a St. Patrick's Day snack or just want to entertain the kids with a fun afternoon activity, reach for this green caramel corn.
  • Bacon Caramel Corn. For a sweet and salty treat, add bacon and pecans to caramel corn. The result tastes similar to candied bacon, with a crunchy texture that will have you reaching for handful after handful.
