Dumbo’s Peanut Butter and Jelly Popcorn Balls

Summer is still going for some! We have extra time still to try fun new recipes! Here’s a cute idea from Disney Family that I came across, enjoy!

What You’ll Need

4 cups popcorn

1/2 cup no sugar added peanut butter

1/4 cup no sugar added strawberry (or your favorite flavor) jelly

3 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon vegetable oil, optional

1 teaspoon water

1/4 teaspoon salt

8 lollipop sticks

How To Make It

1 Cook popcorn in your favorite popcorn maker or buy low sodium popcorn and place in a large bowl.
2 In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the peanut butter, honey and salt. Cook the mixture for 2-3 minutes constantly stirring until it becomes liquefied. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool for a few minutes until it starts to become sticky.
3 Pour the peanut butter mixture over the popcorn and use a spoon to combine if the mixture is too hot.
4 When cool enough to touch, form 8 balls with your hands or use an ice cream scoop. Give each ball a squeeze to keep them from falling apart while the mixture sets.
5 Place balls on a parchment lined baking sheet.
6 Add sticks to your popcorn balls.
7 Thin your favorite no sugar added jelly out with water and drizzle over the popcorn balls. Enjoy!
