Making Caramel Corn

It’s easier than you think to make caramel corn. All you need are eight ingredients. Here’s the list:

Extra virgin olive oil
Coconut sugar
Butter
Bee Inspired Honey
Sea salt
Baking soda
Vanilla extract
Popped corn

First: Pop the Corn

Keep popcorn warm in the oven at 250F. In a saucepan, heat the olive oil and spread it on the saucepan’s bottom so that the ingredients won’t stick.

Second: Mix Caramel

Add all the ingredients except the baking soda, vanilla, and popcorn, and bring it to a boil. Remove from heat and add the baking soda and vanilla, stirring well.

Third: Combine and Bake

Pour caramel sauce over the popcorn and distribute it well. Spread popcorn on a cookie sheet covered with tin foil coated with olive oil (to avoid sticking) and place in the oven for 45 minutes at 250F. Allow to cool and store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Fourth: Honey-Roasted Nuts (Optional)

Do you remember Cracker Jacks? This treat is perfect for the dead of winter or the middle of summer. Add some honey-roasted nuts, and you’ll recreate a nostalgic treat. Package this recipe in a special box for party favors and enclose a “prize” for your guests.
