I made this for a party and although I don't think it is as good as my regular caramel corn, it definetely is good. And I love the addition of the nuts to it.

12 cups plain popped popcorn
11/2 cups walnut halves
11/2 cups pecan halves
11/2 cups salted dry-roasted peanuts
1 cup butter
2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 250°.
In a large bowl, combine popcorn and nuts. Pour popcorn-nut mixture into a lightly greased roasting pan and spread evenly; set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat on stovetop. Add sugar and maple syrup, stirring to combine. Bring mixture to a boil and boil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Add baking soda, salt, and vanilla, stirring to combine.
Pour syrup mixture over popcorn-nut mixture, stirring to coat as much of the popcorn and nuts as possible.
Bake for 2 hours. Cool completely. Store in an airtight container
