Halloween Peanut Butter Popcorn Munch -- Plus ALDI giveaway!
This post has been sponsored by ALDI. All opinions here, however, are my own.
Here's a spooky yet easy recipe to try at your next Halloween party! Halloween Peanut Butter Popcorn Munch features award-winning SimplyNature Organic Creamy Peanut Butter from ALDI -- which, by the way, is darn tasty and contains just organic peanuts and sea salt, with no added sugars or oils.
SimplyNature organic creamy peanut butter is one of a number of ALDI products awarded the 2016 Parent Tested Parent Approved Seal of Approval, and after tasting the peanut butter and looking at the ingredients, I think this award is well deserved. 🙂
I recently had the opportunity to put a spooky spin on SimplyNature organic peanut butter with a fun Halloween party recipe, so why not give this easy five ingredient Halloween Peanut Butter Popcorn Munch a try at your own gathering this year? Note: You can also optionally substitute your own healthier mix-in of choice for the Halloween sprinkles I used here.
Halloween Peanut Butter Popcorn Munch
Ingredients
7-8 cups SimplyNature organic lightly salted pre-popped popcorn
⅓ cup honey
½ cup SimplyNature organic creamy peanut butter
½ teaspoon vanilla
¼ cup various Halloween sprinkles
Directions
Pour popcorn into a large bowl. Bring honey to a rolling boil in a small pot over medium heat (will boil very quickly!) and let it bubble for about 30 seconds. Turn off heat and quickly stir in peanut butter and vanilla. Pour the honey peanut butter mixture over popcorn, add sprinkles, and toss to coat. Let cool and serve in individual Halloween-themed muffin tin cups or use to fill goodie bags.
That's it!
This easy Halloween-themed peanut butter popcorn treat is both gluten free and dairy free, and offers a fun twist on the more traditional popcorn balls.

I love the simply nature salsa and ketchup. They are a staple in my house.
I also want to share a funny story at my local Aldi today. The kids and I were getting groceries, when an older lady chuckled at my little helpers. My five year old yells out: my mom works at Meijer!!
In fair disclosure, I shop at both stores. 😉
I am looking forward to trying the Simply Natural Organic Peanut Butter and Simply Natural Popcorn making this recipe for my granddaughters. In fact, the entire Simply Natural line sounds like something that I should look into!
I am a huge Aldi shopper and I am wanting to try the simply natural organic peanut butter. I have tried and enjoyed the popcorn-I know the quality will be amazing.

I haven't tried any of their products yet, but it sounds like the salsa is a winner. I will add it to my shopping list.
