Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup popcorn kernels (8 cups popped popcorn)
  • ¼ cup salted butter
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ tsp sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Pop your popcorn in an air popper. Remove any remaining popcorn kernels from the popcorn by shaking it over a cooling rack. Place it in a large bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 350°. Line a cookie sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper.
  • Melt the butter, honey, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute.
  • Slowly drizzle the hot honey mixture over the popcorn, stirring vigorously until evenly coated.
  • Spread on the prepared cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for about 12- 15 minutes.

Notes

  • I pop my own popcorn with an air popper or in a large pot, but you can use bagged or microwave popcorn, just make sure it's plain.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, but it never lasts that long at my house!
  • If you like a more gooey popcorn, you can skip the baking step and just enjoy a bowl of sticky honey butter popcorn!
