Maple Kettle Corn

Makes: 8 (1-1/2 cup) servings

Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 Tbsp. canola oil
  • 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn kernels
  • 1/4 cup maple sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
    To make your own maple sugar, mix together:
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) maple syrup
  • 3/8 cup (75 grams) of raw sugar or granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. pure maple extract

Directions:

Heat oil in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add popcorn, sugar, and salt to pan. Cover and cook 3 minutes or until kernels begin to pop, shaking pan frequently. Continue cooking 2 minutes, shaking pan constantly to prevent burning. When popping slows down, remove pan from heat. Let stand, covered, until all popping stops.
