Making caramel popcorn is an autumn time tradition at our house. I love this recipe because it is simple to make and doesn't use any refined sweeteners.

You Will Need (6 things)

  • ¾ cup Popcorn kernels, popped
  • ½ cup Butter
  • 1 cup Sucanat
  • ¼ cup Honey
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Steps (3 steps, 90 minutes)

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Melt the butter, sucanat, and honey in a small pot. Bring to a boil and simmer for five minutes, stirring regularly. Meanwhile, place the popcorn in a large bowl with plenty of room to stir (you may need to use two bowls).

  2. 2

    Once the mixture has simmered for the allotted time add baking soda and vanilla. Mixture will become foamy. Remove from heat and pour over popcorn. Stir until well coated.

  3. 3

    Place in preheated oven for 40-50 minutes. Caramel will harden completely once cool. Remove from pan and place in air tight container. Enjoy!
