Step 1

Preheat the oven to 300 F. Using either a stovetop popper, air popper or other popcorn maker, pop the 1/2 cup of popcorn. Spread the popcorn out on a large rimmed baking sheet or pour it into a mixing bowl.

Step 2

In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, heat together the coconut oil and maple syrup, allowing it to boil for 4-5 minutes or until thickened to a syrupy consistency. Working quickly, pour the mixture all over the popcorn and stir everything with a large wooden spoon or use your hands (it might be hot). Once the popcorn is covered, spread it out on the baking sheet and sprinkle salt lightly over the popcorn. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes. Remove from the oven, allow it to cool a bit and eat!
