Movie Theater Style Popcorn in a Popcorn Popper: How to Give a Delicious Buttery Flavor

Nothing beats the crisp and buttery taste of movie theater popcorn. The good news is, you can easily make your own at home with a popcorn popper. Here’s how to do it:

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup popcorn kernels
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • Salt to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your popcorn popper according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. Add the popcorn kernels to the popper. Make sure to measure the kernels accurately so you don’t end up with too many or too few.
  3. Turn on the popcorn popper and wait for the kernels to start popping. Shake the popper gently to ensure that all the kernels pop.
  4. While the popcorn is popping, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Be careful not to burn the butter.
  5. Once the popcorn is done, pour it into a large bowl.
  6. Drizzle the melted butter over the popcorn, making sure to distribute it evenly.
  7. Sprinkle salt over the popcorn to taste.
  8. Toss the popcorn gently to coat it with the butter and salt.
  9. Serve the popcorn immediately while it’s still warm and crispy.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality popcorn popper to ensure that the popcorn pops evenly and the kernels don’t burn.
  • For a healthier alternative, you can use coconut oil or olive oil instead of butter.
  • You can also experiment with different seasonings to give your popcorn a unique flavor. Some popular options include garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and nutritional yeast.
  • If you want to give your popcorn a sweeter flavor, you can add a sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar instead of salt.

Healthy Breakfast Solutions for Busy Mornings

Published

on

Breakfast (Family Features) Hustling to get out the door for a busy day may tempt you to skip breakfast but taking a few extra minutes to nourish your body helps ensure you can keep up with the day’s demands. Breakfast is your chance to jumpstart your body. Eating breakfast offers multiple benefits, including providing energy to fuel your day and increasing your ability to focus and make decisions. A breakfast rich in protein is also important to keep you fuller longer. Eggs may be a frequent option, yet dairy foods can be a good, protein-rich alternative. If you’re cutting calories, an option like Milk50 contains only 50 calories per serving but the same amount of protein as other dairy milks – 9 grams per serving – along with calcium and vitamin D. This first-of-its-kind product also contains 75% less sugar than skim milk, is lactose-free and doesn’t contain any artificial flavors or colors. A return-to-dairy trend is gaining momentum, with 58% of U.S. adults welcoming dairy back to their diets after being disappointed with the price, taste and heavy processing of plant-based beverages, according to a national survey commissioned by Dairy Farmers of America. Incorporating these real dairy favorites in your morning recipes can be a cinch. Start your morning with a nutritious and delicious shake like this Vanilla Coffee Protein Shake, which combines cold brew coffee and frozen bananas for a refreshing treat. Or, if you’re craving something a little heartier, mix up a batch of Chai Oatmeal Energy Bites over the weekend or in the evening so you can grab one or two on the go.

Chai Oatmeal Energy Bites

Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 55 minutes Yield: 2 doze
  • 1          cup DairyPure Milk50 Vanilla
  • 3          chai tea bags, divided
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • 2          cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2       teaspoon salt
  • 2          teaspoons baking powder
  • 2          tablespoons flaxseed
  • 1          teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/3       cup maple syrup
  • 1/2       cup chopped pecans
  1. In small pot, heat milk until hot but not simmering. Take off heat and place two chai tea bags in milk. Steep tea in milk until cool, about 30 minutes, then discard tea bags.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. In large bowl, stir cooled chai milk, oats, salt, baking powder, flaxseed, vanilla and maple syrup.
  3. Open third chai tea bag and measure 2 teaspoons tea. If tea is coarse, blitz in spice grinder or use mortar and pestle to grind more finely. Stir tea into batter and let mixture sit 10 minutes so oats can soak up milk.
  4. Give batter another stir then fill each mini muffin cavity about 3/4 with batter, about 1 tablespoon in each. Sprinkle chopped pecans on top. Bake bites 12-13 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center of bite comes out clean. Let cool 5 minutes.
