Irresistible sticky and crunchy baked caramel corn made from a cherished family recipe.
Ingredients:
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 0.5 cup unpopped popcorn
  • 2 cups dark brown sugar
  • 1 cup butter
  • 0.5 cup white corn syrup
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C) to create the perfect cooking environment for your dish.
  • In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, warm the oil. Add 4 popcorn kernels and cover until they pop. Once popped, add the rest of the kernels in an even layer, cover, and wait for 30 seconds. Shake the pan gently over the burner until the popping slows to every few seconds, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer the popcorn to a large bowl.
  • In a 2-quart saucepan, bring together brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, and salt. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until it boils. Allow it to boil without stirring for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, add vanilla extract and baking soda, stir well. Pour the mixture over the popcorn, ensuring it's evenly coated. Transfer to a shallow oven-safe pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, until popcorn is crunchy when cooled, about 1 hour.
