Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the popped popcorn, dried pineapple, shredded coconut, and macadamia nuts. Stir gently to mix everything evenly.

  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and well combined.

  4. Stir in the honey and coconut extract into the melted chocolate mixture until fully incorporated.

  5. Pour the white chocolate mixture over the popcorn mixture and gently toss until all the ingredients are evenly coated.

  6. Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.

  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even baking.

  8. Remove from the oven and let the popcorn crunch cool completely on the baking sheet. As it cools, the white chocolate will harden, creating a deliciously crunchy treat.

  9. Once cooled, break the Pina Colada Popcorn Crunch into bite-sized clusters and transfer to an airtight container for storage.
