Can you imagine the look on my friend’s mom’s face when she served us popcorn and I asked if she had nutritional yeast {in 1987}? True story. Popcorn with nutritional yeast has been my favorite snack for as long as I can remember. But two things have changed.
1. I have a popcorn maker that pops without spewing kernels all over the kitchen. Or even worse, down your shirt. Kernel burns are a real thing when you’re working with a dysfunctional popper.
2. I’ve traded in butter for coconut oil.
I melt, drizzle, and sprinkle with salt and yeast. And then I curl up on the couch with my cozy snack and call it a day.
How did you come up with that combination?
My mom used to make it for me when I was little 🙂
Coconut oil…good thinking!
I got a Whirley Pop stove top popcorn maker last fall and I am obsessed. I usually just cook it in vegetable oil and eat it plain, but I love the idea of coconut oil and nutritional yeast. Thanks for the idea!
