Ingredients

Servings

Popcorn Ingredients:

  • 64 g Popcorn
  • ½ Tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 Tsp brown sugar optional
  • 1 Tbsp butter optional, melted

Kitchen Gadgets:

  • Air Fryer

Instructions

  1. Make sure you measure the corn, as too much and you will end up with not enough room for it all to pop.
  2. In a bowl add your corn and your extra virgin olive oil. Toss so that the corn is well coated in the oil. To save time, as you toss your oil, give the air fryer a 1 minute preheat at 200c/400f.
  3. Add your corn to the air fryer basket and create a big layer that is spread out. You don’t want some corn to pop and others to be stuck together.
  4. Air fry for 7 minutes at 200c/400f. Shake at 2 minute intervals by opening the basket slightly so that the pop wont escape from the air fryer.
  5. When it stops popping, toss in favourite popcorn seasoning or in butter or brown sugar, load into popcorn boxes or bowls and enjoy!

Notes

  • Quantity. It is very important that you don’t add too much corn, as we had an XL, we could manage ½ cup. If your air fryer is smaller go with either ¼ cup or 1/3 cup.
  • Popping. We found that the popcorn started to pop after 1 minute of cook time. During our first time cooking air fryer popcorn we didn’t cook the corn for long enough and that is the biggest issue with corn not popping.
  • Thanks for reading our air fryer popcorn recipe on Recipe This. We have many more air fryer recipes for you to check out next. Though, our personal recommendation would be to try our air fryer chocolate chip cookies next. Or why not make our instant pot popcorn.
