Air Fryer Popcorn
Ingredients
- ½ cup Popcorn kernels
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer at 200C/400F for 5 minutes.
- Line the base of the air fryer basket with tin foil. Place the popcorn kernels in a single layer on top of it.
- Place the air fryer basket in the air fryer and cook for 8 minutes.
- Let the popcorn sit in the air fryer for a further 30 seconds, to allow excess popping.
- Remove the air fryer basket and place the popcorn into a mixing bowl.
- Toss with salt and your favorite seasonings and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- It's important to preheat the air fryer before adding the popcorn kernels. This ensures that the air fryer is at the right temperature and produces perfectly popped popcorn.
- Use a single layer of popcorn kernels to ensure that they all pop evenly. If you use too many kernels, some may not pop properly, while others may burn.
- Don't skip the step of letting the popcorn sit in the air fryer for a further 30 seconds. This allows any excess popping to finish, and it also helps the popcorn to cool slightly before being removed from the air fryer.
- Be careful when removing the popcorn from the air fryer as it will be hot. Allow it to cool for a minute or two before tossing it with salt and your favorite seasonings.
