Sticky Caramel Popcorn Recipe
This healthy caramel popcorn recipe was a gift from heaven….or rather, from Australia. (One and the same???)
One of my Facebook fans, Dani, bless her heart, was kind enough to share this with me, and all of you!!
Everyone needs to thank this woman because this is some seriously good popcorn!!
Though I must admit that after testing this recipe (a few times…. ehem!), I think I need to do another No-Sugar challenge. But first, I gotta finish this bowl of popcorn…
Join me? I promise, it’s a worthwhile splurge. Perfect for a movie night with the family!

Ingredients
- ¼ cup almond butter (or peanut butter if you prefer that flavor)
- ½ cup honey
- 10 cups air-popped popcorn
Instructions
- Read through the steps first. You’ll need to work quickly.
- In a small pot, warm the honey on high heat. Bring it to a boil.
- Let it boil up in the pot about 1 inch and then quickly remove from heat.
- Stir in nut butter with a whisk and whisk until smooth. Should be “pourable”.
- Pour over the popcorn and mix with a spoon. The mixture is hot, so don’t be tempted to mix with your hands. I learned that the hard way (Duh!!).
- Let it all sit and cool. To me, it tastes better cold. But that could just be me.

Alfone – I’m not sure that would work here. I think you’d get one big mess. But you can certainly give it a try!
Katherine – I bet you’re right! Glad you enjoyed it!
DRT – Awesome!
Lisa – Different flavor, but same effect. Yes, I’m sure it would be delicious!
Audra – That’s great! I’d love to hear how it turned out. I never microwave honey because I find it looses it’s thickness somehow. But please tell me how it was!

Stumbled upon your blog looking for a dairy free popcorn treat. Added cinnamon and we loved it! Next time I will try crunchy popcorn with maybe some chocolate drizzled over the top.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it!

They would, but it would be sticky!
I came across this recipe trying to find an alternative for hard caramel. I was wondering if this mixture would set hard in the fridge?
No, sorry.
Oh my goodness!!!!!!!!!! This is so good! I was thinking of adding peanuts to it , like Cracker Jax!
Oh ya! That would be good!
