Caramel Popcorn
This was the favourite recipe I made for Stoki back in 2020. I had doubled the recipe and it was gone in moments. I should have quadrupled this recipe.
Ingredients
- 8 Cups Popped Popcorn
- 6 Tbsp Butter
- 1-1/2 Cups Light Corn Syrup
- 1/4 Tsp Salt
- 1/4 Tsp Baking Soda Heaping
- 3/4 Tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°F.
- Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Add popcorn to pan in an even layer and place in the oven to warm
- Melt butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once melted, stir in brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt until smooth.
- Bring to a light boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- As soon as the caramel starts to gently boil, boil for 2 minutes, stirring.
- Remove from the heat and stir in baking soda and vanilla.
- Pay attention, because it will rapidly expand and will make an enormous mess.
- Seriously. Pay attention.
- Immediately drizzle caramel over popcorn. Toss gently with a spatula until coated.
- Bake for 45 minutes, stirring the popcorn every 15 minutes.
