JAMIE'S SPICED SUGAR AND CHRISTMAS POPCORN RECIPE



Jamie's Spiced Sugar and Christmas Popcorn Recipe image

This Jamie Oliver sugar mix really does smell like Christmas (although you are not limited to eating it only at Christmas!). The sugar recipe makes loads, (but is easily halved) and it keeps in an airtight container for absolutely ages and can be used on a variety of things (to sweeten whipped cream, on porridge, on fruit--you name it...), so it's well worth doing a full batch. I don't usually do sweet popcorn, but I like this one!

CINNAMON-SUGAR POPCORN



Cinnamon-Sugar Popcorn image

I first tried this when I was visiting my sister in West Virginia. After trying it, I loved it, however I neglected to ask her for the recipe. 10 years later, I have it, and I still love it! The kids can help make it if you use an air popper (which I did to reduce fat and calories...there's enough in the butter!) I used my deep dish lasagna pan to cook it in the oven. You can use a roasting pan or any other large, deep dish pan. It makes a lot, so either invite your friends or store it in an airtight container for later.

How to make Sugar-N-Spice Popcorn

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 quarts popped popcorn-1/2 C kernels using a hot air popper
5 Tblsp butter, melted
2-3 Tblsp sugar-I used 2 1/2
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Sprinkling of salt-optional

Steps:

  • Mix the butter, sugar and spices until the sugar begins to melt a bit.
  • Pour over popcorn and mix very well.
  • Dig in and love life!
  • Notes:
  • I popped my corn right onto a half sheet pan and melted the butter in a measuring cup with pour spout. This allowed me to slowly drizzle as much popcorn as possible. Then I mixed it on the sheet pan. Other than having to re-gather a couple stray pieces of popcorn this worked very well.
  • The nutmeg is amazing in this, if you have freshly grated that would be best.
