Chipotle Coconut Maple Caramel Corn Recipe

chipotlel maple caramel corn recipe
Meet your new favorite caramel corn.

If Cracker Jacks is one of your favorite childhood treats, wait no more for a home made heavenly upgrade. Crack Jacks, only yummier. And healthier. Just all around better.

The playful flavor combo in this sweet/salty/spicy glazed popcorn is remarkable. This is by far the best caramel corn I  have ever eaten. And, something you would never, ever guess: this vegan recipe is healthy, too. Coconut oil is one of the best things you can put in your mouth - Dr Oz just recommended it for losing weight, after all. And, not only does it speed up metabolism, it has incredible anti-oxidant powers.

One warning: this stuff is truly addicting. Eat-until-you're-sick addicting. Lick-the-bottom-of-the-bowl addicting. Crave-it-all-day addicting. There. You've been warned.

Happy Fall, Y"all!
