Pumpkin Spiced Maple Kettle Corn

We had our first snow of the season this morning!

Since the pup doesn’t appreciate taking breaks from his daily walks due to weather, I threw on a hat and fuzzy gloves and braved the freezing air. Once we were back in the warm house in front of the fireplace, I started a crockpot split pea soup with ham shanks and then got to business on a recipe idea that’s been dancing in my head since I saw the first bottle of pumpkin beer on the store shelf.

Sweet and salty kettlecorn is kicked up a notch with pumpkin spice and pure maple syrup.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unpopped popcorn kernels
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut butter
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 pinch pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Directions

Step 1
In a medium-sized pot, melt the coconut butter over medium-high heat on the stove.
Step 2
Pour in the popcorn kernels and place the lid on top, shaking constantly to coat kernels with oil and prevent burning.
Step 3
In a cup, combine the sugar, pumpkin pie spice and salt.
Step 4
Once the kernels have all popped, remove the pot from the heat, drizzle the maple syrup and sugar/spice/salt mix on top.
Step 5
Replace the lid and shake well to coat evenly.

popcorn2 This popcorn is a perfect blend of salty and sweet, with a wonderful hint of warm spice. I’m off to enjoy the snowy view with a hot bowl of homemade soup. Happy Friday!
