Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Pop the popcorn kernels using your preferred method.
-
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
-
Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Let it boil for 4 minutes without stirring.
-
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the baking soda. The mixture will foam up.
-
Pour the caramel mixture over the popped popcorn and toss until the popcorn is evenly coated.
-
Spread the coated popcorn onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for 10-15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to ensure even browning.
-
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. The caramel coating will harden as it cools.
-
Once cooled, break apart any large clumps and transfer the crispy vanilla-caramel popcorn to a serving bowl.

Enjoy!
