Instant Pot Caramel Popcorn Recipe, how to make homemade caramel corn in a pressure cooker. Easy recipe for a buttery sweet snack!
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoon Coconut Oil.
- 1 cup Popping Corn.
- ½ cup Sugar.
- 1 teaspoon Salt.
- 2 tablespoon Butter.
- ½ cup Milk.
Instructions
- Coconut Oil Set your Instant Pot on sauté and add the coconut oil. You can use a wooden spoon if needed to move the melting coconut oil around so that it is evenly spread out.
- Kernels. Add the kernels to the melted coconut oil and use your wooden spoon to move the kernels around. When the kernels begin to pop you can place the the lid on your pressure cooker. Continue cooking the kernels until you can no longer hear them popping. Then turn off your instant pot and unplug it.
- Transfer Carefully transfer the popped corn to a large bowl (that can withstand the heat). You can use a spoon to help you weed out an unpopped kernels.
- Caramel. In a saucepan over medium heat, heat together the sugar with three teaspoons of water. Do not stir the sugar as you want it to melt into the water. Once the sugar turns a golden brown you can whisk in the butter and once that has melted you can slowly whisk in the milk. After you have added the milk to the saucepan, continue to cook the ingredients for another five minutes and then remove it from the heat and allow the caramel to thicken (about three to five minutes).
- Coat. Once the caramel has thickened you can pour half of it over the popcorn in the bowl and toss the popcorn to coat it with the caramel.
- Set Let the coated popcorn sit at room temperature for a few minutes and then refrigerate it to fully set (should take about 45 minutes to an hour). Repeat the coating process from the last step with the remaining caramel until the popcorn is fully coated with the caramel. You can then refrigerate the popcorn again to get the caramel to set.
