EASY PEASY CARAMEL POPCORN
Caramel Popcorn - this recipe was adapted from the very first microwave my parents bought back in the early 80's. That was a do everything in the microwave, and I guess you still could, it was just easier for me to adapt. I do microwave the popcorn in the MicroPopper, but do the rest on the stovetop.

Steps:
- Pop your popcorn - the most time consuming thing is making sure all of the unpopped kernels are removed. I place the popcorn in a large aluminum roasting pan(easy clean up and large enough to stir up).
- In a saucepan, start your butter melting over medium heat. When the butter is melting, add the brown sugar and mix up and add the marshmallows. When the marshmallows are melted, pour over the popcorn and stir up with a wooden spoon, making sure everything is coated. I love this recipe!

Steps:
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 300°F.
- In a large bowl, toss together the toasted oats, flax seeds, and almonds. Set aside.
- Add the water to a small saucepan. Pour the sugar into the center of the pan (in a pile so it doesn't touch the sides). Bring it to a boil and then reduce the heat just a little to medium high. Let the mixture cook. It will need to simmer for about 10 minutes until it turns a pretty amber caramel color. WATCH IT CLOSELY! It goes from perfect to burn pretty quickly.
- When the color looks right, place the pan in the sink. Add the milk or cream. The mixture will sizzle and bubble up. Stir quickly until it's smooth, then stir in the vanilla. Pour the caramel over the oats and almonds and toss to coat.
- Add the honey and oil to the same saucepan. Heat over medium until they blend. Scrape into the bowl.
- Use a spatula to turn the mixture over a few times. Scrape onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Sprinkle with the sea salt.
- Bake for about 30 minutes. Let it cool completely. The granola will scrape off the parchment in oat clusters.
- Notes.
- To toast the oats, preheat the oven to 350°F. Scatter the oats evenly across the bottom of a 9 X 13 pan, and let them toast in the oven, stirring at least once, for about 15 minutes.

Tips:
- Use a variety of oats. This will give your granola a more complex flavor and texture. You can use old-fashioned oats, quick-cooking oats, or even steel-cut oats.
- Choose your nuts and seeds wisely. Nuts and seeds add crunch and flavor to granola. Some popular choices include almonds, walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, and chia seeds.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. You can add spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger to your granola. You can also add dried fruits like cranberries, raisins, or cherries.
- Make sure your granola is crispy. Granola should be crispy, not chewy. To ensure that your granola is crispy, bake it at a high temperature for a short period of time.
- Store your granola in an airtight container. This will help to keep it fresh and crispy.
Conclusion:
Granola is a delicious and versatile snack that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover oats and nuts. With a little creativity, you can make granola that is perfectly tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, reach for a bowl of granola.
