Here the weather has finally become like fall! When the weather turns fall like we here at the Sorensen house want to get out and enjoy all the fall activites! Meaning time to get out and pick some apples which is exactly what we did!
Yesterday we went apple picking for the very first time! It was so much fun! Of course I had to try one of each of all the apples so that we knew which ones we wanted to pick!
We had a great time tasting and exploring all that Spicer's Orchards had to offer! We came home with 41 Mutsus, 4 Ida Reds, a few Northern Spies, and 3 Jonathans!
All in all it was a great day! Now the only question was what to do with all our apples! So we made apple tart, apple crisp and for good measure homemade carmel corn!
Homemade Carmel Corn Recipe
A family recipe revised by Kristin Sorensen
I revised it because I like extra carmel!
- Stick margerine or butter
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- hot air popcorn- two batches
2. Melt butter in a microwaveable bowl.
3. After butter is melted add brown sugar, corn syrup and salt. Place in microwave. Watch until it starts to bubble and expand. Once that starts time it for two minutes. Remove from microwave and make sure to place on a trivet! It will be really hot!
4. Add baking soda and stir. The carmel will become a creamier color. It will also expand.
5. Lastly add vanilla.
6. After all ingredients have been incorporated carefully stir over hot air popcorn. CAUTION! Do not burn yourself with the carmel it is very warm!
Now to settle down on the couch for some warm apple cider and tv time with my two favorite dogs Kota and Berk!
Now for a song to send you off!
