Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, blend together peanut butter, canola oil, vanilla, honey, brown sugar and salt. Set aside.

In a large (at least 4-inch deep) baking pan, mix together oats, wheat germ, ground popcorn, sesame seeds and coconut. Add peanut-butter mixture to this. Stir all to coat. With a spatula, press down on mixture to make sure the ingredients lay fairly even in the pan.

Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, stirring after 20 minutes. Let cool, before serving or storing.

This stores well for weeks in an air-tight container.

Makes slightly over 2 quarts.


Popcorn for breakfast? It works for our family. And that's no poppycock.

Mr Breakfast would like to thank Britney for this recipe.

Early American settlers supposedly ate popcorn for breakfast with sugar and milk or cream, so why not?

I found this recipe to be a little 'seedy' for me, but it definitely tastes good. I felt that it filled me up much better than a lot of store-bought varieties. I made this to try to start saving money but my kids ate 3 bowls each so I guess this is a done deal anyway.

This was great. Had it for a snack. Have some left over and will try it breakfast soon. Great snack though.

POPCORN CEREAL??? What's up with that man?!?!? Besides the fact popcorn ISN'T for eating at cereal times - only when it healthy - It was pretty good.
