Health and fertility benefits of Cinnamon Heart Popcorn
Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060).
Ingredients
1 cup butter
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 1/2 cups cinnamon red hot candies
8 cups popped popcorn
Instructions
Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Combine butter, corn syrup, and cinnamon candies in a bowl over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and cook for 5 minutes. Pour the syrup over the popcorn in a large, heatproof bowl, and stir to cover the popcorn as evenly as possible. Spread the popcorn out onto the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until the candy coating is set, about 30 minutes.
