Ingredients
Instructions
-
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add a few popcorn kernels to the pot and cover with a lid.
-
Once the test kernels pop, add the rest of the popcorn kernels to the pot. Cover with the lid and shake the pot occasionally to prevent burning.
-
When the popping slows down, remove the pot from the heat and let it sit for a minute to finish popping.
-
In a small bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, paprika, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Mix well.
-
Transfer the popped popcorn to a large bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the popcorn and toss to coat evenly.
-
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the popcorn and toss again to coat well.
-
Add the mini pepperoni slices and shredded mozzarella cheese to the bowl. Toss everything together until the toppings are evenly distributed.
-
Spread the Pizza Popcorn out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Broil in the oven for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
-
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your homemade Pizza Popcorn!
