Amish Honey Roasted Caramel Corn
Amish Honey Roasted Caramel Corn is an updated honey twist on the simple old fashioned treat. Everyone loves caramel corn and this recipe starts with the kernels and ends with honey roasted caramel goodness.
When it comes to caramel corn, I’ve got the bar set high. I hate it when it sticks in your teeth. I mean, who even likes that? I want caramel goodness that melts in your mouth. Most caramel corn recipes nowadays seem to thrive on corn syrup. In this recipe, I take it back to the simple days when things like corn syrup didn’t exist. It’s all about the honey. Toss in some honey roasted peanuts and cook it low and slow for an hour and you have Honey Roasted Caramel Corn goodness.
Now what about the Amish part? This recipe is based on Amish Caramel Corn. I’ve given it a honey roasted twist, but kept it classic and simple. It’s everything an Amish recipe should be which really is just about simplicity.
When it comes to the cooking oil, you can use whichever you have on hand or whichever you prefer. Canola oil and vegetable oil seem to be the most common.
