Cinnamon and brown sugar popcorn is a really quick snack to make. It is a nice lightly sweet snack that isn't overly sweet. Great for taking to work or school or for enjoying at home.
Combine brown sugar and ground cinnamon together in a small bowl. Mix until well combined.
(optional) Grind cinnamon and brown sugar mixture using a spice mixer or mortar and pestle. (Note 1)
Popcorn
Heat oil in a medium saucepan on medium-low heat, along with 3 popcorn kernels and cover with a lid.
After the 3 kernels have popped, add in the remaining popcorn kernels and cover the saucepan with a lid again.
While the popcorn is popping, shake the saucepan to shake some of the unpopped kernels to the bottom. Also occasionally lift the saucepan lid away from you to let out some of the steam.
Once the popping has slowed down to once every couple of seconds, turn off the heat and empty the popcorn into a large bowl.
Sprinkle the cinnamon and brown sugar flavoring onto the popcorn, to suit taste, and toss until the popcorn is well coated. (Note 2)
Notes
Grinding up the flavoring will make it much finer and will help it stick to the popcorn better.
I like to start with roughly 1 tablespoon of the flavoring, taste it and then add more if I feel like it.
