Ingredients

  • 2 Tbs coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn
  • 1 tsp salt or more, to taste
  • 16 oz meltable white chocolate
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 cup slivered almonds

Instructions

Popcorn

  1. Melt coconut oil in a X qt pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Place 3 kernels of unpopped corn into oil and cover with lid.
  3. Once these have popped, you'll know it's time to add the rest.
  4. Pour unpopped popcorn into hot oil, cover with lid and remove from heat for 30 seconds, then return to heat.
  5. When several kernels have popped, begin carefully shaking the pot side to side, front to back while still on the heat, to keep kernels moving inside.
  6. Continue shaking until you don't hear many kernels still left in the bottom of the pot, and popping slows down, around 3 minutes
  7. Remove from heat and remove lid carefully to let steam escape.
  8. Add salt and stir.

White Chocolate

  1. Microwave melting white chocolate according to package directions, being careful not to overcook.
  2. Pour half of melted white chocolate over popcorn and stir.
  3. Add dried cranberries and almonds, stir again.
  4. Add remaining white chocolate and stir one final time, getting even distribution.
  5. Spread popcorn mix onto a jelly roll pan and pop into fridge for 30 minutes to cool and harden.
  6. Store in an airtight container.
