Looking for a simple and unexpected way to elevate your next brunch or party treat to the next level? The magic ingredient to make a recipe THAT much more poppin’ is popcorn!
Here are five ways that you can bring to the next level using gourmet popcorn. We promise you’ll never go back once you try it!
Peachy Pancakes
If you’re a pancake lover, then maybe you think you’ve tried every trick in the book to bring more zing to your favorite breakfast (or lunch AND dinner)! Be warned – once you’ve tried pancakes this way, brunch with family and friends will never be the same!
Ingredients
- 2 fresh peaches (about 2/3 lb.)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 cup of pancake mix (ie. Castle Kitchen’s Protein-Packed Plain Jane Vanilla Pancake & Waffle Mix)
- ¾ cup of water
- … and as much EATABLE Poppin’ Peach Bellini and whipped cream as you can fit!
Directions
First, you want to remove the peach fuzz by gently rubbing them under running water. After this, slice them to your liking. Then you should toss the peaches and maple syrup together in a bowl, but try not to get in a sneak taste!
Now you want to combine the water and the pancake mix, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, and prepare your pancakes by spooning 1/3 cup onto the skillet at a time and letting them cook on both sides for about a minute!
Finally, serve up your pancakes with your peaches and syrup, and pile on the whipped cream. Elevate the pancakes by topping with the EATABLE popcorn, and hey, presto! Pancakes, done better.
Popcorn Balls!
This is a recipe that can’t escape the elevated crunch and finger-smacking goodness of popcorn! It’s simple, easy, and adds a little more oomph as a crowd favorite party snack!
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup of corn syrup
- 1 cup of your favourite EATABLE popcorn
- Some skewers to serve them on!
Directions
Combine your ingredients by drizzling the syrup all over the popcorn and mixing them together! Once the popcorn is all dully covered, take about a handful and roll them into a compact ball.
Once you have all your popcorn rolled, stick in your skewers and place it in the fridge to chill for about an hour... and that’s it! Tuck in and enjoy!
Ice Cream with a POP!
Make any night in all the more special by adding EATABLE popcorn to your ice cream. You can keep it simple or go all out – the possibilities are endless!
Take your favorite ice cream, from good old-fashioned vanilla to a wild card like Smarties or matcha flavor, then top it with your favorite EATABLE popcorn.
Every flavor of EATABLE has an ice cream buddy, so dress for the occasion: sprinkle on some Pop the Champagne to celebrate your wins that week, or add some class to your Netflix and Chill sesh with Poppin’ Merlot PB&J.
