MAPLE & PUMPKIN SPICE POPCORN

2 tbsp brown sugar

1 1/2 tsp pumpkin spice mix
1 tbsp butter
1/2 cup chopped pecans or almonds, optional
5 cups freshly popped popcorn in a glass heatproof bowl

In a small saucepan combine the brown sugar, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes or until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is bubbly. Stir in the butter until it is melted into the hot mixture. Remove from the heat and add nuts, if using. Pour the hot mixture over the popcorn and stir with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until all the corn is coated. Allow to coat before serving. Serve once cooled or store in an airtight container.
