Ingredients: 1/2 cup popcorn kernels. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. 3 tablespoons unsalted butter. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 1 teaspoon salt. 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional.

Instructions: Heat the vegetable oil in a big pot over medium heat. After adding the popcorn kernels, place a lid on the pot and allow a small opening for steam to escape.

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over a medium heat. Add the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, cayenne pepper if using, and salt; stir until the sugar dissolves and is well combined. After adding the butter mixture to the popcorn, toss to coat it completely. To cool and allow the coating to solidify, spread the popcorn onto a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.

Cranberry Crumble Bars Ingredients: Shortbread Crust: 1 cup (226 g) unsalted butter, room temperature 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar 1/2 cup (100 g) light brown sugar, packed 1 large egg, room temperature 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 3 1/4 cups (405 g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled 3/4 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt Cranberry Filling: 2 1/2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries 2/3 cup (133 g) granulated sugar 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 tablespoon orange zest 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Vanilla Glaze: 3/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted 4 tablespoons whole milk or heavy cream 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Directions: Prepare the Shortbread Crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy bar removal. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the egg and vanilla to the mixture, beating until well combined. Scrape down the bowl as needed. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Do not overmix. Set aside roughly 2 cups of the dough for the crumble topping. Press the remaining dough firmly into the prepared baking pan, ensuring an even layer. Bake the crust for 15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is just set. Let it cool slightly while preparing the cranberry filling. Make the Cranberry Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cranberries, sugar, cornstarch, orange zest, orange juice, and vanilla. Pour the cranberry mixture over the pre-baked crust, spreading it evenly. Add the Crumble Topping: Break up the reserved shortbread dough into small, flat pieces and place them randomly over the cranberry filling, leaving gaps for the cranberries to peek through. Bake for 45 minutes, covering the pan with aluminum foil for the last 10-15 minutes to prevent over-browning. Cool and Glaze: Allow the bars to cool completely on a wire rack before adding the glaze. Prepare the Vanilla Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk (or heavy cream), and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust thickness as needed. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bars. Prep Time: 25 minutes Baking Time: 60 minutes Cooling Time: 30 minutes Total Time: 1 hour, 55 minutes Kcal: 270 kcal per bar Servings: 16 bars These Cranberry Crumble Bars bring a delightful combination of flavors with a buttery shortbread crust, tart cranberry filling, and a sweet vanilla glaze. The hint of orange zest and juice adds brightness to the cranberries, making these bars a delicious treat that’s perfect for the holiday season. Each bite is filled with a balance of tangy and sweet flavors, making them ideal for fall gatherings and Thanksgiving celebrations. Perfect for sharing, these bars are a seasonal favorite with their crumbly topping and vibrant cranberry filling. With an added vanilla glaze, they’re not only visually appealing but also rich in flavor – an excellent addition to any dessert table!
