DIY Homemade Popcorn Instructions

Microwave popcorn is convenient and easy but the price is hefty. Plus, all the extra chemicals in the packaged microwave popcorn is something we probably want to stay away from. Will a little effort, you can easily make your own popcorn at home.

DIY Microwave Popcorn Ingredients

To get started making your brown bag popcorn, you just need popcorn kernels, butter, brown lunch bag, and salt to taste. Have those ingredients in your pantry? Then you can easily get started on your own homemade microwave popcorn.

Place all the ingredients in the bag. Fold the top of the bag over and place on side in microwave.

Cook times vary by wattage – approximately two minutes.

Put a movie on and enjoy your homemade popcorn!
