Ingredients for Herb Popcorn Recipe

  • 0.08 Cup Popcorn kernels
  • 0.33 Tbsp Olive Oil Or Butter
  • 0.17 Tsp Dried rosemary
  • 0.17 Tsp Dried thyme
  • 0.08 Tsp Garlic Powder:

Directions: Herb Popcorn Recipe

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • STEP 1.Start by popping your popcorn. If you're using a stovetop method, heat a large pot over medium heat, add a tablespoon of oil, and drop in the kernels. Cover with a lid and shake the pot occasionally to prevent burning. Once the popping slows down, remove the pot from the heat. Alternatively, you can use an air popper for a lighter version with less oil.
  • STEP 1.While your popcorn is popping, combine the dried rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, and salt in a small bowl. If you're adding nutritional yeast, stir it into the mix now. For an extra kick, toss in the crushed red pepper flakes for an Italian herb popcorn with a touch of spice.
  • STEP 2.Once your popcorn is ready, drizzle it with olive oil or melted butter while it’s still warm. Then, generously sprinkle the herb mixture over the popcorn and toss to coat evenly. Make sure every kernel gets a good flavor boost. If you like a stronger herb taste, feel free to adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • STEP 3.Once your savory herb popcorn is well-coated, it’s ready to serve. You can enjoy it as is, or pair it with a dip of your choice for an added treat. The beauty of this recipe is how versatile it is—whether you're watching a movie, hosting a party, or just craving a snack, this herb popcorn is sure to impress.
