Ingredients
-
⅓ cup PRANA organic raw European almonds (or a mix of PRANA organic cashews, Brazil nuts, walnuts, etc.)
-
½ tsp ground turmeric
-
½ tsp ground cumin
-
¼ cup nutritional yeast
-
A few generous pinches of sea salt
-
Fresh ground pepper
-
5 tbsp PRANA organic coconut oil
-
½ cup popping corn
Directions
In a food processor, grind nuts into a fine powder for several seconds, then add spices, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper, mixing a few seconds more. Set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt 2 tbsp of coconut oil over medium heat.
Once oil is hot, add in popping corn and cover pot with a strainer large enough to seal in popcorn and prevent kernels from flying everywhere as they pop.
Wait until the first kernels pop, and then begin shaking pan while still holding strainer firmly on top. Let kernels pop, shaking every 5 or 6 seconds.
Once corn has stopped popping, transfer to a large bowl. Melt remaining coconut oil and pour all over popcorn. Sprinkle with nut and spice mix, tossing to coat popcorn.
