- Set popped popcorn aside into large bowl.
- Bring remaining ingredients to a boil, lower heat and simmer until temperature reaches about 220 degrees.
- Drizzle over popcorn and stir, continuing to drizzle and stir until caramel is used up.
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (I needed 2 baking sheets) and spread the popcorn onto the baking sheets.
- Bake in oven at 250 degrees for about 20 minutes, then let cool completely before eating.
- Enjoy!

This recipe is delicious! Just the right amount of sweetness and so nice to know I’m not eating high fructose corn syrup. Baking it in the oven gives it just the right crunch. Thank you!

Do you think you could use coconut oil instead of butter? We have to be dairy free in our home due to allergies.

Hi, Kara! I haven’t tried it with coconut oil–I believe there have been a few people who have done ghee–do you eat ghee? If you end up trying it, please let me know how it turns out! Sorry I’m not more help!
