Vegetable
Ingredients
½ cup Popcorn Kernels
2 tsp Cannabutter
2 Tbsp Canola Oil
Kosher salt, to taste
Directions
Add canola oil and 1 tsp cannabutter over medium-high heat in a large pot.
Add in your popcorn kernels once melted and evenly distributed on the surface.
Stir the kernels until well coated with the oil/butter mixture. Cover with lid.
Reduce heat. While kernels pop, securely shake the pot every 15 seconds to prevent burning and ensure even heat distribution.
Once the corn stops popping, remove from heat and immediately transfer into a serving bowl.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tsp of cannabutter onto the popcorn, stirring to coat evenly. Feel free to add regular melted butter if you love buttery movie theatre-style popcorn.
Sprinkle with kosher salt to taste.
Notes
- If you like sweet popcorn you can use sugar instead of salt
