Caramel-Nut Popcorn Crunch Recipe

Hosting a family get-together? Backyard barbecue or pool party? Going traveling? If so, you’ll want to whip up this Caramel-Nut Popcorn Crunch! It’s easy-to-make and makes the perfect grab-n-go snack. The recipe is courtesy of Popcorn.org and will yield approximately 20 pieces. I think I would toss in some M&M chocolate coated candies just to give it a little bit of sweetness.

Caramel-Nut Popcorn Crunch Recipe

10 cups freshly popped popcorn
2 cups whole almonds
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup light corn syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 225 degrees. Spray 15 x 10 baking sheet with non-stick spray.

Mix popcorn and almonds in large bowl. Combine brown sugar, butter and corn syrup in medium saucepan. Over low heat, stir mixture until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high and boil 5 minutes.

Remove from heat; stir in vanilla, almond extract and baking soda.

Pour over popcorn and almonds, immediately stirring gently to coat. Pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet, spreading evenly.

Bake for 1 hour in preheated oven. Cool completely. Break into pieces and store in airtight container or food storage bag.
