The best coconut oil for popcorn is refined coconut oil, as it has a higher smoke point (around 350°F or 177°C) compared to unrefined coconut oil, making it ideal for popping corn without burning. Additionally, refined coconut oil has a neutral flavor that won't overpower the taste of the popcorn. Some brands also offer coconut oil specifically formulated for popcorn, which often includes flavorings for enhanced taste. Look for high-quality, non-GMO options for the best results.

Other oils that can be used to pop popcorn are sunflower oil, corn oil, safflower oil, and soybean oil. Avoid oils that will smoke at popcorn popping temperatures, such as olive oil or grape seed oil.
