Popcorn is a classic snack loved by people of all ages. While it’s easy to grab a bag of pre-made popcorn from the store, making your own buttery popcorn in the microwave is not only fun but also allows you to customize it to your liking. In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the simple steps to make delicious butter popcorn right in your microwave. Let’s get started!

What You’ll Need:

  • 1/4 cup of popping corn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons of butter
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Large microwave-safe bowl with a microwave-safe plate or microwave popcorn popper

Step 1: Preparing the Popcorn

Take a large microwave-safe bowl and add 1/4 cup of popping corn kernels to it. Make sure to spread them evenly at the bottom of the bowl.

Step 2: Covering the Bowl

Now, cover the bowl with either a microwave-safe plate or a microwave popcorn popper. This will prevent the hot popcorn from popping out of the bowl. If using a microwave-safe plate, make sure it can fit inside the microwave without touching the walls.

Step 3: Microwaving

Place the covered bowl in the microwave and set the timer for 2 to 4 minutes, depending on your microwave’s power. Start with 2 minutes and gradually increase the time if needed. The popping sound should slow down after a while. Listen carefully to prevent the popcorn from burning.

Step 4: Melting the Butter

While the popcorn is popping in the microwave, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a separate microwave-safe bowl. This can be done while the popcorn is still cooking.

Step 5: Adding the Butter

Once the popcorn is done, carefully remove the bowl from the microwave using oven mitts (it’ll be hot!). Carefully remove the cover, as hot steam might escape. Pour the melted butter over the popcorn and toss it to distribute the butter evenly.

Step 6: Seasoning with Salt

Finally, season your popcorn with salt to taste. Use a spoon or your hands to toss the popcorn and ensure every kernel is coated with butter and salt.

Your Butter Popcorn is Ready!

Now you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your homemade butter popcorn. Whether you’re watching a movie, having a cozy night in, or hosting a movie night with friends, this quick and easy microwave recipe is sure to be a hit!
