Maple bacon popcorn

Serves:

Ingredients

• 2 rashers of middle bacon, diced
• 2 tsp coconut oil
• 1/2 cup popping corn
• 1/3 cup (80ml) maple syrup

Method

Cook bacon in a non-stick frypan until crispy and golden. Remove from pan and drain on kitchen paper.

Heat coconut oil in a large lidded saucepan over a medium heat. Add corn and place the lid on. Shake the pan intermittently until the corn starts popping. When it has stopped popping, remove from heat. Add maple syrup and crispy bacon and stir to combine.

Pour into a large bowl and enjoy while still warm.
