Recipe: Cinnamon Bun Popcorn

Something about Fall has us thinking POPCORN! And this four ingredient popcorn makes a great snack with over 20 grams of protein per serving.

This is made to serve one.

Popcorn

1. 5-6 cups air popped popcorn (using the paper bag method/stovetop or instant package)

Cinnamon Bun Mix

1. 1/2 tsp cinnamon
2. Pinch sea salt
3. 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)*
4. 2 T+ granulated sweetener of choice (I tried coconut sugar, a stevia granulated blend and standard white sugar)**
5. Coconut oil cooking spray (sub for any spray of choice - can use water but see notes)

Instructions

1. In a small mixing bowl, combine the cinnamon, sea salt, protein powder (if using it), granulated sweetener and mix well.
2. Pour your popcorn in a large bowl or extra large paper bag. Spray with the cooking oil spray to cover the popcorn.
3. Pour the cinnamon bun mix over it and shake well until combined- If it isn't sticking well, add a dash more cooking spray.
4. Enjoy!

Notes

1. * I recommend using a blended protein powder or vegan brown rice protein powder
2. ** Adjust to taste. My protein powder was sweetened so I kept it at 2 tablespoons.
3. If you use water, you need to eat your popcorn immediately to avoid it getting soggy.
