1
Gather and portion ingredients.
2
Set oven to 250 °F
3
Pop popcorn kernels in your preferred method. I like to use an air popper and pop the popcorn in a grocery bag, since I don't have a bowl quite that big.
4
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan.
5
Add the brown sugar, salt, and corn syrup to the pot with the melted butter.
6
Bring the sugar and butter to a boil and boil for about 5 minutes or until it thickens slightly and starts to bind together.
7
Remove from heat and add vanilla extract and baking soda.
8
Grease two large baking pans and fill with popcorn. Pour caramel over the top of the popcorn and stir until mostly coated.
9
Bake for an hour stirring every 15 minutes.
