After School Peanut Butter and Honey Popcorn
Today is the last day of Fall Snack Week. Hasn’t it been fun? I have loved it and I have saved my favorite treat for very last. It happens to involve popcorn, peanut butter, and honey. This after school peanut butter and honey popcorn is my new favorite and highly addictive treat. It also comes together in a jiffy.
I found this yummy coated popcorn recipe over at Prudence Pennywise. Love ya Prudy and so glad you shared this delicious recipe! This recipe is so easy to make that you simply must make it! You really have no excuse unless, that is, you have a peanut butter allergy.
The popcorn has a perfect amount of peanut butter flavor. The coating is soft, chewy, and so ooey gooey. It would also be excellent to drizzle with some melted chocolate chips over all of it. You could use white, semi-sweet, or milk chocolate, The you could have a peanut butter chocolate popcorn. It would be excellent to give as a gift too. I think I need to go whip up another batch of this after school peanut butter and honey popcorn right now.

Real Mom Kitchen
Ingredients
- 8 cups popped lightly salted popcorn low-fat microwave popcorn is what I used
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup honey
- ½ cup peanut butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla optional, but I totally used it!
Instructions
- Place popcorn in a large bowl. In a small saucepan, combine sugar and honey. Bring to a rolling boil.
- Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter until smooth. Add vanilla, if using.
- Pour peanut butter syrup over popcorn and stir to coat. (You can place the popped popcorn in a large paper bag, then pour over the syrup and shake. That's how I did it) Spread out on to a cookie sheet to cool for a few minutes and enjoy!
