Description
Sweet and cinnamon-spiced popcorn inspired by Cinnabon rolls.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn kernels
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Pop the popcorn according to package directions using the vegetable oil. Set aside in a large bowl.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Stir in the brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Boil for 5 minutes without stirring.
- Remove from heat and stir in the baking soda. The mixture will foam up.

Notes
- Ensure all popcorn kernels are popped before adding the caramel.
