Whether you’ve heard of this epic honey butter cinnamon popcorn combo, I’m going to share a few sweet reasons to make it with you.

Sweet Cinnamon Popcorn

Cinnamon popcorn drizzled with melted honey butter will leave your tastebuds amazed and ready for more. It’s not overly sweet like caramel corn and is simple to make!

Use regular microwave popcorn, or make your own on the stove-top. Both options taste great with the buttery glaze.

Cinnamon on popcorn has been a long-standing tradition in my family, but a while back, my daughter wanted to try it with a drizzle of honey, and the rest is history.

Here’s everything you need to make a batch of this honey butter popcorn! 

• corn kernels: you’ll need ½ cup of kernels or 2 bags of microwave popcorn.
