Baklava Popcorn
If you’re a fan of baklava, the flaky Greek dessert made of filo dough, butter, nuts and honey, then you should give my Baklava popcorn a shot.
It has all the same flavors but for a fraction of the calories. Plus, it’s a cinch to make.

Ingredients
- ½ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup chopped walnuts, or pecans
- 10 cups light popcorn
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- In a small, glass mixing bowl, add honey and butter and microwave for about 30 seconds until butter is melted. (*Before adding honey to measuring cup, mist with nonstick cooking spray to prevent honey from sticking).
- When honey-butter mixture is well combined, add vanilla extract and cinnamon, stir and set aside.
- Lay chopped walnuts on baking sheet and lightly toast in the oven or toaster oven.
- Drizzle honey mixture over popcorn, tossing as you drizzle to ensure it’s evenly distributed through the popcorn batch. Sprinkle on the pecans and sea salt. Enjoy!
