Cool, stirring occasionally.

HEALTHY POPCORN TREAT

Steps:

• Heat coconut oil in a large pot over high heat. Drop 3 popcorn kernels into the hot oil and place a lid on the pot; cook until 1 kernel has popped. Remove the lid and pour in the remaining popcorn. Return the lid to the pot and cook popcorn, shaking pot back and forth over burner, until there are 1 to 2 seconds between pops, about 5 minutes.
• Quickly transfer popcorn to a large bowl; evenly drizzle honey over popcorn. Add salt and cinnamon; toss popcorn with your hands to coat evenly.

POPCORN NUT MIX

• Place popcorn and nuts in a large bowl; set aside. In a small saucepan, combine the honey, orange zest, orange juice and cinnamon. Bring to a boil. Pour over popcorn mixture; toss to coat.

CARAMEL PRETZEL NUT POPCORN

Steps:

• Place the pretzels, popcorn and peanuts into a large paper bag or, if you have one, a very large bowl. Set aside.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter. Cook, stirring to melt the butter and dissolve the sugar, until the mixture comes to a boil. Once the mixture is at a full boil, continue to cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Remove from the heat, and stir in the salt, vanilla, and baking soda. The mixture will foam up when you add the soda, so use a long spoon to stir. Immediately pour the sugar mixture over the popcorn and pretzels in the bag. Shake until evenly coated. For a crispier treat, boil the sugar mixture longer, or bake the finished mix in the oven at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 10 minutes.
