Air-Popped Popcorn

EverydayCooked

Air-popped popcorn is a whole-grain snack made by heating dried corn kernels with hot air until they expand into light, crispy flakes, requiring no added oil. This preparation method preserves the natural fiber content while keeping calories and fat significantly lower than oil-popped or buttered varieties. Its neutral flavor profile makes it highly adaptable to both savory and sweet seasonings, offering a nutrient-dense base for customizable, low-calorie snacking.
