This Christmas popcorn recipe is from a page that I tore out of my Grandma’s Taste of Home magazine years ago! It is incredibly simple, makes a wonderful little gift, and pairs perfectly with a favourite holiday movie.

Favourite Takeaways:

1. Already gluten + dairy free
2. An excellent last-minute treat
3. No candy thermometer required

Whenever I make this popcorn for Christmas, it never lasts long. Much like a bowl of nuts and bolts, the boys basically attack it!!

A note that no alterations were made to this recipe.

approximate times:

• about 35  minutes
