It is worth noting that most packaged popcorn is loaded with oil. This is not bad news if you are a fan of buttery popcorn, but it can be an issue for the more observant vegans among us. That being said, a little goes a long way, and the most impressive popcorn may not be the best option. If you are looking to save a few bucks while putting a few smiles on your family’s faces, try making your own.

Coconut sugar

Using coconut sugar in kettle corn is a great way to add a touch of carnival flavor. Adding sugar to popcorn kernels during popping gives a delicious and crunchy texture.

Kettle corn is easy to make, but requires stirring continuously to ensure that all kernels pop. A large, sturdy pot with a lid is recommended.

Before beginning, be sure to measure out the oil, salt, and sugar. A large 4-quart sauce pot will work best. If you plan to make multiple batches, you will want to wash your pan between batches.

Place the oil in the pot over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, place 3 popcorn kernels in the oil. Leave the pot on the stove for a few minutes. This will ensure that the oil is hot enough to pop the popcorn.
