Caramel Popcorn Recipe
1 cup packed, dark brown sugar
½ cup sugar
1/8 cup water
1/3 cup Rich & Creamy MELT® Organic Buttery Spread
1 tablespoon light molasses
1½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
12 cups popcorn, air-popped and unsalted
Preheat oven to 250°. Coat a large jelly roll pan with cooking spray. Combine the sugars, water, MELT® and molasses in a medium saucepan. Boil over medium heat. Once boiling, cook for 5 minutes, stirring once. Remove from heat. Add the vanilla, baking soda and salt, stirring to mix. Pour the mixture over the popcorn and stir to coat.
Spread the popcorn in a single layer in your jelly roll pan and bake for 45 minutes, turning the popcorn every 15 minutes so it does not burn. Remove from the oven and break up clumps. Let cool 15 minutes.
We were given the opportunity to try out some MELT® ourselves and were very pleased with it’s creamy texture, melting factor and taste! We used it on some baked potatoes one evening with dinner. We used it another time during breakfast on our toasted bagels, another time on our French toast and frankly, we’ve been using it pretty often when we need to use butter or a butter substitute.
The MELT® Organic’s products look, taste and melt just like real butter, but without all of the dairy products in it. For those of you have dairy allergies, this is great! For those of you who just want a healthier alternative….great for you too! We think it’s fantastic and have already made the switch. You can use it in baking recipes, on your sandwiches, melted on top of your potatoes, veggies, etc. Any place that you would normally use butter, you can use MELT® Organic!
