I'm obsessed with homemade popcorn because I make organic popcorn at home with just a few simple ingredients. Lots of store bought popcorn can have seed oils, where if you make your own organic popcorn at home, you can easily avoid them!
This is an old recipe, one we used to make for fun when I owned a bakery. We didn't sell it, we just made it for staff to eat as it was the best savory snack! If you've made homemade popcorn before, you'll love this recipe. I simply pop kernels on the stovetop like any homemade popcorn recipe, but the secret to this Rosemary Sea Salt Popcorn is the butter rosemary topping.
Once the popcorn is popped, I melt butter along with dried rosemary together over the stove. Then I pour this mixture over the homemade popcorn, shake it up, and add salt. This salty and savory homemade popcorn is so addicting! We are obsessed with this in our house and make it for movie night all the time!

Ingredients
- Popcorn Kernels: I use organic yellow popcorn kernels.
- Coconut Oil: I use organic coconut oil, as this is a high heat oil. If you don't have coconut oil you can use ghee or extra virgin olive oil too.
- Butter: I use Organic Valley Salted Butter for the butter rosemary topping. You can use salted or unsalted as you'll salt the popcorn to taste at the end anyways.
- Dried Rosemary: I use organic dried rosemary, as this gives it the most flavor.
- Salt: Use fine sea salt.
Tools Needed
- Scale: It's really easy to measure the kernels this way, so I always use a digital food scale to ensure I have the right amount.
- Stock Pot: You'll need a large stock pot with a lid, the lid is essential!
- Small Pot: You'll also need a small pot to melt the butter for the butter rosemary topping.
