2 tbsp neutral oil (such as avocado oil or canola oil)

For the garlic oil

3 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced

For the seasoning

¼ cup nutritional yeast
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp fine salt
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

For serving

1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) in a small bowl and set aside.
2
Heat the neutral oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add 3 popcorn kernels, cover, and wait until all 3 have popped — this signals the oil is hot enough. Add the remaining kernels in a single layer, cover, and cook, shaking the pot every 15–20 seconds, until the popping slows to about 2 seconds between pops. Remove from heat immediately and transfer the popcorn to a large bowl.
