Scary, isn't it? The dark shadow, the red fabric and the eerie glow of the popcorn tell you not to put it in your mouth. But the popcorn is so inviting and it smells divine! The tantalizing smell of caramel, the pop of the spice and the hint of salt and peanut butter is too much to resist. This devilish treat is surely a crowd pleaser for the little goblins and ghouls who will most definitely appear at your house. Keep your popped corn on hand - because this is going to be a sweet ride!
(Peanut Butter Caramel Popcorn Ingredients)
- 5 tbl Coconut Oil
- 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1/2 Cup White Sugar
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- 1 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
- 1/4 Cup Soymilk
- 2-4 tbl Low-fat Peanut Butter
- A Small Squirt of Lemon Juice
- Unsalted Crushed Peanuts (optional)
- Cooked popcorn
(Directions)
- Melt the coconut oil in a thick-bottomed pan and add in your sugar. Stir those in for a while as you drizzle in the soymilk. Let it thicken and bubble.
- While still stirring, add the salt and pepper flakes. Let that go for another five minutes and add the lemon juice. It should be thick and you should kind of be able to tell how far the caramel is in with it's thickness.
- Stir in the peanut butter and a touch of extra salt if you like, it should look like a thick caramel by now. Stick a spoon in it to test it's thickness.
- Spread it over your popcorn evenly and sprinkle the peanuts over. Mix it together until coated and serve warm or cooled.
- Enjoy!
