LIGHT CARAMEL CORN



Light Caramel Corn image

I'm a diabetic. (Trivia fact: Diabetics have no dietary restrictions.) My nutritionist gave me this great recipe for caramel corn out of a diabetic cookbook. It's light, filling, and makes a great snack. It's a hit with the kids and many of my friends. The popcorn can be fresh popped or out of a microwave. I'm not sure exactly how much popped popcorn is in a microwavable bag, but I usually use a full bag.

Time 11m

Yield 2 , 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 cups popped popcorn
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Pop the popcorn and put it into a bowl. Make sure there is some extra room in the bowl if possibble. You'll need that room when you toss the popcorn.
  • In a small microwave safe bowl, microwave together the butter and honey, only until melted. Over heat it, and it WILL burn (trust me, I've done it.).
  • Using a regular spoon, drizzle 2 spoonfuls of the butter/honey mixture over the popcorn and toss thoroughly. THIS IS CRUCIAL. Put any more on at once and it won't turn out right.
  • Repeat step three. Most of the mixture will be gone before it seems like you're getting anywhere with this. Be patient, and when the honey/butter is all gone, enjoy:).

HOMEMADE CARAMEL POPCORN RECIPE



Homemade Caramel Popcorn Recipe image

Sweet and gooey, this homemade caramel popcorn recipe is an old family favorite.

Provided by Momma Cyd

Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound brown sugar
1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup karo syrup (light corn syrup)
1/2 cup butter
1 cup unpopped popcorn

Steps:

  • Pop your popcorn in an air popper machine. My machine only allows 1/2 cup of kernels at a time so I had two separate batches that I had to pop.
  • Cook the brown sugar, Karo syrup, and 1/2 cup of butter over the stove on medium high heat and bring to a boil.
  • Add the sweetened condensed milk. Stir continually for about 3 to 4 minutes until it gets to the soft ball stage (it clings together when you drop some in cold water). It will burn if you cook it too long, so make sure you are stirring continuously and watch it closely.
  • When it is finished cooking, take your pan off the stove and pour the caramel sauce over your air popped popcorn. Mix until all the popcorn is completely coated. You will need a very large bowl to mix it all together.
