Enjoy the sweet sidekick of the cinnamon glaze on your popcorn. Relatively simple to make and fun to snack on.

Prep time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 13 minutes

Total Time: 18 minutes

Ingredients: 

  • 4 cups of popcorn kernels
  • 3/4 cup of cashews
  • 3 tablespoons of butter
  • 2 tablespoons of honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon of ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  2. In a small pot over low heat melt the butter and honey together. Mix in the cinnamon, ginger, and salt.
  3. Put the cashews in an extra-large mixing bowl. Coat them with about a tablespoon of the butter/honey mixture.
  4. Spread the coated nuts onto a baking sheet covered with parchment paper and bake for 6 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, in the same large bowl evenly coat the plain popcorn – minus any unpopped kernels – with the remaining butter/honey mixture.
  6. After the cashews have been in the oven for 6 minutes, take out the tray, add the popcorn to it, and mix it all up together. Stick the tray back in the oven and set the timer for 4 minutes.
  7. After 4 minutes open the oven and stir or shake the mixture around on the baking sheet. Set the timer for 2 more minutes.
  8. Once again open the oven and stir/shake the mixture so there are no hot spots that could get burnt. Set the timer for 1 more minute at which point the mixture will once again need to be checked/stirred.
  9. Repeat the process of checking/stirring the popcorn mixture every minute then take it out of the oven once it turns a dark brown (it can burn easily toward the end!). My total bake time was 6 minutes for the nuts then an additional 7 or 8 minutes once I added the popcorn.
  10. The popcorn and nuts will be slightly wet right out of the oven but will harden as they cool.
