Instructions:

1. Prepare the bread:

Start by heating a nonstick frying pan over medium heat.
While the pan is heating up, cut the sliced bread into small cubes.
Once the pan is hot, add the cubed bread, and toast them until they become brown and crispy.

This should take a few minutes. Transfer the toasted bread cubes to a separate bowl.

2. Make the caramel sauce:

Return the pan to the heat.
Add about 3 tablespoons of sugar to the pan and pour in one tablespoon of water.
Watch as the sugar and water mixture begins to turn a golden color.

3. Add butter and milk:

Quickly add 1 tablespoon of butter to the caramelized sugar. Be careful as the mixture may bubble up.
Stir in about three tablespoons of milk.

4. Caramelize the mixture:

Allow the mixture to simmer and caramelize. It should start to thicken and turn a lovely caramel-brown color. Stir continuously to prevent burning.

5. Combine with toasted bread:

Once the mixture has reached the desired caramel consistency, add the crispy toasted bread cubes back into the pan.
Stir well to coat the bread cubes evenly with the caramel sauce.

6. Serve and garnish:

Turn off the heat immediately to avoid overcooking.
Let the caramel-coated bread popcorn cool.
If desired, sprinkle some powdered milk over the caramel bread popcorn for added flavor and a unique touch.

Enjoy your homemade Caramel Bread Popcorn as a sweet and crunchy snack that's perfect for any movie night or gathering.
