CINNAMON TOAST POPCORN



Cinnamon Toast Popcorn image

This snackable pile of lightly sweetened popcorn is reminiscent of buttery cinnamon toast and the perfect treat for two or four (or one!). You can easily make another batch to serve a crowd. Popcorn is coated in syrup and toasted in a pot to create a shell of caramelized sugar that's dusted with cinnamon. Five minutes out of the pot, the popcorn cools to a soft crispness, but if you bake it for just 10 minutes, the popped kernels dry all the way through and become crunchy to their core. This treat is delicious on its own or as part of a dessert board with gingerbread biscotti, iced oatmeal cookies or any other cookies of your choice.

Time 20m

Yield About 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
4 1/2 cups/50 grams popped unbuttered, unsalted popcorn (see Tip)
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees and have a large sheet pan lined with parchment paper nearby.
  • In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the sugar, butter, corn syrup, salt and 1 tablespoon water. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring with a large metal spoon or rubber spatula, until the butter melts and the mixture turns into thick bubbling syrup, about 1 minute. Cook until it begins to smell toasty, about 1 more minute, then add the popcorn, carefully tossing every 2 to 3 seconds, until it starts to brown lightly, another 1 to 2 minutes. Begin tossing constantly for another minute or two until the popcorn turns deep golden brown in most spots, being careful to never let it burn. Remove from the heat, sprinkle with the cinnamon and toss a final time to coat.
  • Immediately pour the toasted popcorn onto the lined sheet pan and spread in an even layer. Bake until a shade darker, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool the popcorn on the pan on a rack for 5 to 10 minutes to harden. Toss a final time to break up any clumps and serve.

1/4 cups Granulated Sugar
1 heaping tablespoon Cinnamon

  • Slowly drizzle the button onto the popcorn and stir as you go. You'll want to lightly cover the popcorn.
  • Sprinkle the buttered popcorn with the Cinnamon Sugar and stir. (We used 1/4 cup of sugar and then added 1 heaping tablespoon of cinnamon and mixed it together.)
  • Continue adding the Cinnamon Sugar until it is covered to your liking. (We did not use the full 1/4 cup of sugar.)
  • Allow the popcorn to cool. Break apart into pieces and serve.
