Sweet, salty, and covered in sprinkles this Circus Animal Popcorn will be your family’s new favorite treat.
This popcorn is inspired by that Mother’s Circus Animal Cookies…get it…because the popcorn is covered in pink and white topping and sprinkled with sprinkles! Popcorn is actually a great addition to your food storage because it’s such an amazing snack and so easy to make. Plus, popcorn in kernel form is fairly inexpensive and a great way to vary your lunches. When thinking about food storage, I used to always get stumped until I realized that lunch is about the snacks (let’s be real…there are only so many different sandwiches you can make), so it’s important to have things like popcorn, homemade yogurt, and crackers (like these delicious homemade animal crackers).
HOW TO PERFECTLY POP POPCORN
You don’t have to always buy that microwave stuff, it’s entirely possible to pop popcorn at home perfectly just using your stove and a pot. Just heat 3 Tbsp. oil in a 3 quart pot and throw in a few kernels. Cover the pot and heat over medium heat until you hear the kernels pop. Remove from heat and add in 1/3 cup kernels, cover and count to 30 (this allows the kernels to heat up and the oil to cool down). Return to heat and wait for kernels to pop, once they start popping, keep moving the pot around and slightly vent the lid. After it’s popped, cover with butter (if desired) and salt. Seriously, it’ll be the best popcorn you’ve ever had!
