Homemade Maple Caramel Popcorn

This is Canadian popcorn at its best. MAPLE caramel popcorn without the corn syrup!

Maple syrup is honestly a gift to man. It is absolutely glorious in all its forms. Have you ever had frozen maple on a stick? So good. Pick one up at your next Canadian farmer's market.

Recipe:

1-3 tbsp Avocado Oil (Coconut oil would also be a great option)
1 cup popcorn kernels

1/2 cup butter
1 cup maple syrup (the real deal!)
 dash sea salt

1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Popcorn time! Add your oil to a large pot at medium/high heat. Cover, and gently shake occasionally until the popping stops.
3. Add your butter, maple syrup , and sea salt to a small saucepan. Stir continuously over medium heat. Once you see bubbles, stir for 5 more minutes.
4. Pour over popcorn immediately and stir.
5. Spread mixture onto baking sheets, and bake in oven for 10 minutes- stirring once halfway through.
6. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

Next time...I'll add bacon bits!
