It’ not a seasoning that is typically in my local grocery store. But you can find Everything Bagel on Amazon here.

Or my favorite, the Trader Joe’s brand, at Trader Joe’s OR, if you are able to get to a Trader Joe’s, you can find that on Amazon too!

What type of popcorn works best for seasoning?

Because you will be using lots of highly flavorful seasoning and butter on your Everything Bagel popcorn, it’s best to use plain popcorn you make in a hot air corn popper.

Can I pop my popcorn in the microwave?

Sure! As long as you use plain popcorn – not buttered or salted. It honestly will be too much flavor otherwise.

What type of butter should I use?

Well, this is a vegan food blog. So I’m going to recommend you use vegan buttery spread only. Use the one that tastes best to you. Use the one that makes you happy. If you can find a tasty stick butter, it will certainly be easier to measure before melting. We can’t always find that though.

I’m trying to avoid oil, do I have to use butter?

Do you want your seasoning to stick? Because if you don’t use some sort of sticky moisture (fat), it’s not going to. Even with using butter, you are going to have some pieces of the Everything Bagel Seasoning fall off.

Don’t even ask if you can use water to moisten your popcorn before sprinkling the seasoning. The answer is NO, unless you are into soggy popcorn. I do have one suggestion though:

Health it Up! If you are trying to avoid as much oil, you can try spritzing on some cooking spray and then immediately sprinkling the seasoning and then to a quick spritz to seal the deal. Be aware though that not as many of the seasoning pieces will stick. It’s worth a try though if it is important to you to avoid oil.
