Ingredients

• 0.5 cups Popcorn kernels
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 tablespoons Butter (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot with a lid over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the rosemary sprigs to the oil and let them sizzle for 1-2 minutes to infuse the oil with the rosemary flavor. Remove the sprigs and discard.

Step 3

Add the popcorn kernels to the pot in an even layer.

Step 4

Cover the pot with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low. Shake the pot occasionally to prevent the kernels from burning.

Step 5

Once the popping slows down (about 2-3 seconds between pops), remove the pot from the heat and transfer the popcorn to a large bowl.

Step 6

In a small pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil with the garlic powder and salt over low heat until combined. (You may also melt 1 tablespoon of butter along with this step for added richness, if desired.)

Step 7

Drizzle the flavored oil over the popcorn and toss well to coat evenly.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade rosemary popcorn!
