| Magic Reindeer Food (popcorn, toasted pecans, salt, cinnamon) |
Merry Christmas! This is magical treat is basically popcorn (on the cook top, skip the lime juice), salt, cinnamon, and toasted pecans. Delightful!
Magic Reindeer Feed
1/8 to 1/4 c canola oil
3/4 to 1 c popcorn kernels
1 c pecans
2 tsp cinnamon
salt, couple dashes
Break pecans into smaller pieces and top with cinnamon. Fill cookie sheet with single layer of nut pieces. Set oven to 425 degrees and place pan of nuts in oven right away (while oven heating) and set a 10-minute timer.
Next, fill a wide pan with oil and kernels on medium-high heat, cover, and remove from heat when pops slow down significantly to every few sec.
Salt popcorn, remove nuts from oven, combine popcorn and pecans, and enjoy!
Reindeer, elves, Santa, and other children and adults will love this simple treat!
Here is a link from Christmas Letter Tips for a Magic Reindeer Food tag that you can print. There is a cute poem that encourages kids to feed the reindeer and head to bed! And here is one I made :)
