3-ingredient vanilla popcorn balls
Ingredients
Utensils
pot, bowl, paper towels, rubber spatula, parchment paper, baking sheet
Nutrition per serving
Step 1/3
- 5 g popcorn kernels
- vegetable oil
- salt
- pot
- bowl
- paper towels
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Pour in popcorn kernels and add a pinch of salt. Cover and lightly shake the pot until kernels start popping. Lift or set the lid at an angle to allow steam to escape. Once kernel pops are more frequent, remove pot from heat and transfer popcorn to a bowl, making sure to remove any unpopped kernels. Wipe out the pot with a paper towel.
Step 2/3
- ⅓ tbsp unsalted butter
- 20 g marshmallows
- ⅛ vanilla bean
- rubber spatula
Melt butter and marshmallows in the same pot over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, deseed the vanilla bean and add the seeds to the pot. Once the marshmallows are melted completely, remove pot from heat and mix in popcorn and bit of salt. Stir gently until fully coated.
Step 3/3
- parchment paper
- baking sheet
Use a greased spoon and your hands to form the popcorn mixture into bite sized balls. Set them on parchment paper-lined baking sheet and let sit for approx. 10 min. Enjoy!
Enjoy your meal!
