Instant Pot Perfect Popcorn Food

INSTANT POT POPCORN

Steps:

• Set the Instant Pot on SAUTE and set it on HIGH. Allow the inner pot of the Instant Pot to become really hot.
• Once you see the HOT message on the little screen of the Instant Pot add the coconut oil and allow the coconut oil to becomes really hot. It should take about 3-4 minutes.
• Add the popcorn and saute for 2-3 minutes in the hot oil.
• Cover the Instant Pot with a glass lid and watch the popcorn pop. The frequency of popping will increase and than will slowly reduce. Once the popping is over turn off the Instant Pot immediately and open the lid. Toss the hot popcorn with salt or your favorite seasoning. Serve hot. Enjoy!

INSTANT POT PERFECT POPCORN

Steps:

• On the Instant Pot, hit Sauté and adjust so you're on the More or High Setting. Add the coconut oil where it will melt into liquid as it heats. Once the display reads Hot, you're ready to pop!
• Add in ONLY 5 kernels and cover with a glass lid that's slightly larger than the circumference of the liner pot (you can use any glass lid you have for your pots/pans/skillets that fit).
• Once 3 of the 5 kernels pop (about 1-2 minutes), remove the lid and add in the rest of the kernels and then immediately shake the liner pot back and forth so the kernels are in an even layer. Place the glass lid back on and within about 5 minutes, all of the popcorn will be popped! (NOTE: Make sure you carefully shake the pot around every so often as it's popping for even distribution of the kernels. This ensures the max amount of popping.)
• Once the popping becomes very intermittent, hit Keep Warm/Cancel to turn the pot off. Remove the liner pop and let rest for 2 minutes and take the lid off, carefully keeping your face away from the pot in case any last second poppers shoot out of the pot and into your mouth (although, that would be impressive).
• Grab your favorite movie, transfer the popcorn to a large serving bowl and top as you wish!

INSTANT POT® POPCORN

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select High Saute function. When the display indicates the pot is hot, spoon coconut oil into the pot and let it melt.
• Add popcorn and stir with a rubber spatula until kernels are coated. Wait 30 seconds and stir again; kernels should be making a sizzling sound at this point. Cover pot with the glass lid on and cook for 5 minutes. Cancel Saute mode and let sit until kernels have completely stopped popping, about 1 minute.
• Transfer popcorn to a large bowl and sprinkle with salt.
