This is a recipe that I know will make my fellow peanut butter lovers out there smile! It’s ridiculously simple and unbelievably tasty. And addicting. You’ve been warned!
The good news? You probably already have all of the ingredients that you’ll need to make this snack in your pantry.
Popcorn. Cinnamon. Honey. Peanut butter. That’s it!
I created this on a night when I had a serious peanut butter craving (shocking!) and started playing around in the kitchen after dinner. The end result was this cinnamon peanut butter popcorn!
After one bite, I knew Ryan and I would have no trouble polishing off every last kernel while we watched some TV.
The popcorn is easy to make and so incredibly delicious, and perhaps the best news is that you can make an extra batch and take it to go — it holds up really well.
I have to give some credit to Becca for inspiring this recipe. She commented on an Instagram photo I posted of almond butter. She said she likes to drizzle the nut butter over popcorn and when I read that my mouth started watering and I knew I had to give it a go… with a little twist!
I tossed a bag of natural popcorn in a sweet and salty mix of peanut butter, honey and cinnamon and couldn’t get enough!

Description
Take natural popcorn and make it special with this sweet and salty mix of peanut butter, honey and cinnamon. It’s great for make-ahead snacks, too!
Ingredients
- 1 bag natural popcorn, freshly popped
- 1/4 cup natural creamy peanut butter
- 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Combine peanut butter, cinnamon and honey in a large bowl.
- Stir together and microwave until slightly runny, about 30 seconds.
- Pour popcorn on top of peanut butter mixture and toss to coat.
- Allow to cool slightly and enjoy!
Ryan and I ended up throwing a handful of chopped pecans in the mix after I was done photographing the popcorn and I loved the added flavor. I highly recommend adding a handful or two of your favorite nuts, dried cranberries or butterscotch chips to the popcorn. The possibilities for add-ins are endless, but it’s quite good without any help!
Enjoy!

We have a popcorn place in town and they offer over 150 favors!!! Talk about variety! Everything from Reese’s to BBQ to strawberry! Hubs and I can’t get enough. 🙂
Well this looks amazing! I know what I’m having for dessert after our homemade tuna tartare! I’m just catching up on blogs after being in Mexico for the past week and I must say you have posted some delicious recipes over the past couple days! That meatloaf looks amazing too! I wonder if you could do it in muffin tins for an easy, on-the-go lunch at work?
Also – The Big Bang Theory – I honestly think I laugh ALMOST as hard as I do while watching Friends re-runs.
Well, now I know what I’m having for dinner!
One time, I made a gallon-sized Ziploc bag full of plain popcorn mixed with almond butter and coconut flakes to take on a movie date I was going to immediately after a CrossFit class. No shame.
he was on roseanne too. i used to watch that show all the time.
oh yeah!!! he actually looks like the male version of darlene (sara gilbert) from rosanne, too!
i know they looked like brother and sister:)
I’m definitely trying this recipe this weekend! I am a little bit popcorn obsessed so I’m always looking for ways to change things up. Thanks! 🙂
Um yummo! Extra bonus points for the pecans 😉
OMG this looks absolutley amazing!!! Can not wait to make a batch of this!
Oh wow, that does sound tasty!!!
I normally air pop my kernels and then I throw in chopped jalapenos.
I’m a fellow peanut butter lover as well. Just wondering, have you ever tried sunflower seed butter? It’s currently my new obsession. So creamy and tummy!
This is actually on my to-do list for the weekend…it sounds amazing and just so easy!!!
I made a batch with almond butter tonight. It is SO addictive! Needless to say… It’s gone! Thank you for sharing the recipe.
Also, you get bonus points for liking BigBang Theory. It’s one of our fav’s.

I absolutely ADORE Big Bang Theory! It was the same for me. I had it on in the background and at some point realised just how good it is! It’s the only show I watch that actually makes me laugh out loud!!!! Love it!!!!!!!!!

How many cups of popcorn would say the bag made? I usually just air pop mine & I want to try out this recipe!
When yοu have the Vileԁa cleaner, οr any type of kind

Julie–love this! I know using silverware with popcorn is probably a crime, but I totally ate mine with a spoon so I could dig in sans messy fingers.
Yummmmm. Just made it for a girls weekend. Hope I don’t eat it all before I have a chance to share it!
