Celebrate the start of baseball season with this crowd-pleasing Caramel Popcorn recipe courtesy of Delish. Yields 8 servings.
Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Pop 6 cups of popcorn and set aside.
In a large pot over medium-high heat, melt 1/2 cup of butter, then stir in 1 cup of brown sugar and 1/4 cup of light corn syrup. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly so it doesn’t burn, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Whisk in 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla.
Pour the caramel over the popcorn and toss until evenly coated, then spread it out in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle lightly with flaky sea salt and bake for about 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes, until the popcorn is deep golden and crisp
Let it cool completely, then break it into pieces and store in an airtight container for up to a week.
