- ½ cup popcorn kernels
- 3 tablespoons oil (canola, vegetable or coconut oil)
- ½ cup of white granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Whirly-pop or 4 quart sauce pan with lid and long handled spoon for stirring
- Baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
- Place pan or pot on the stove at a medium-high heat, add oil, and just three of the popcorn kernels, and cover. When the kernels pop, the oil is to temperature and ready.
- Add the remaining kernels, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla. Quickly stir together to coat all the kernels and cover.
- If using a whirly-pop pan, stir as the kernels begin to pop. If using sauce pan, shake the pan frequently as the kernels begin to pop.
- Remove from heat when the popping slows down to 1 to 2 seconds between pops.
- Kettle corn can be poured onto a parchment or aluminum foil lined baking sheet to cool.
What’s a Whirly-Pop Pan? Great for Kettle Corn?
Whirly Pop Pan ($34.65)
The is great for making making plain popcorn or for making kettle corn. The Whirly Pop is a stainless steel pan and detachable lid with patented stirring mechanism and metal gears. For kettle corn you just turn the handle and the stirring mechanism does the work, coating the popcorn evenly and keeping the mixture from burning. You can buy cheaper imitations models. Most people say other versions break often but a Whirly Pop comes with a 25 year warranty. Might be worth the few extra bucks! Here’s the Homemade Cinnamon Vanilla Kettle Corn being made in the Whirly Pop.

I would love to get this ( 6 Quart Whirley Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper Gift Set with Amish Country Popcorn) popcorn set because it has almost everything I need to get started as soon as it is delivered! I eat a large bowl of fresh popped popcorn at least once a day, sometimes twice! My day is not finished until I have had my hot buttered popcorn! I have even been known to wake up at 3am and make a batch because I was dreaming about popcorn! LOL Hubby doesn’t like when I do that!!
Would love to win this so I can order my popcorn set today! Thank you for the chance I will be keeping my fingers crossed!

Well, to start off, I would need a popper, so right on top is one – Wabash Valley Farms Whirley-Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper 🙂
