Caramel popcorn
Popcorn is one of my all-time favorite munchies: It’s whole-grain, loaded with fiber (3.5 grams per cup) and so easy to personalize based on your tastes. Sprinkle on Parmesan and rosemary for savory goodness, cinnamon and sugar for a little sweetness, hot sauce if you’re a hothead like me, and so on. In this version, I create an authentic-tasting caramel flavor using naturally sweet pureed dates, maple syrup, vanilla and maple extracts. My kids, nieces and nephews go totally crazy for it. I’m hoping yours love it, too.
