Heat the coconut oil in a large pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the popcorn kernels, cover, and cook, shaking the pot every 30 seconds, until the popping slows to about 2 seconds between pops. Remove from heat immediately and transfer the popcorn to the prepared baking sheet, spreading it into an even layer. Discard any unpopped kernels.
