Ingredients

  • 8 cups air-popped popcorn
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Preparation

  1. Heat the butter, sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg on the stove in a saucepan until butter melts and sugar dissolves. If preferred, microwave the ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl. Be careful not to burn the butter.
  2. Drizzle spiced butter mixture over popped popcorn; mix well.
  3. Serve immediately for best results.

Helpful hints

  • If you don’t have an air-popper, use 1 bag no-salt microwave popcorn, popped. Fat content will be higher.
