Almond Caramel Popcorn

The corn that popped--- popcorn!

It's an all time fave especially for movies and parties, and since the festive season just started with the Trick or Treats, I have decided to share a simple remedy to an instant,  not too exciting microwaveable popcorns. You may want to try this, so simple with just few steps that are not that complicated, but this will need an oven to make it more exciting so here we go--


Almond Caramel Popcorn

What you need...

1 bag (150g) Almonds (ready to eat  baked or roasted almonds)
1 bag of microwaveable popcorn (microwave as directed)
When done  spread on a baking tray lined with parchment for easy cleaning and spread the almonds on the popcorn.
Then set aside.

Caramel
100 g unsalted butter
1 c brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp baking soda

On medium heat, place butter, sugar and salt in a pan and let the butter melt.
Then add sugar and salt mix until well dissolved. 
Let it boil until no sugar granules are seen. 
Remove from heat and add the baking soda and vanilla.
Mixture will create a bubbling light brown solution.
Continue mixing for about a minute then RTU.


Assembling:

Pre-heat the oven at 175 degrees.
Pour (in a stream) the caramel over the popcorn and almonds.
Then mix to cover the popcorn and almonds with caramel.
Place the tray with popcorn and almonds inside the oven and bake for 15 minutes ( 3 times) every interval, take it out and mix for an even baking of caramel.
When done, transfer on a serving bowl and serve with caution.

Note: You can use any nuts you like and colour or flavour your caramel at your preference.


Sit down, relax, see a movie and pop these corns in your mouth!
