Buffalo Popcorn Seasoning Ingredients
To make this easy buffalo wing popcorn seasoning, you’ll only need 6 ingredients:
- Garlic powder.
- Ranch dressing mix. You’ll want to buy the powdered ranch mix, I used the Club House brand.
- Paprika. I used regular paprika, but smoked will work if that’s what you have on hand.
- Cayenne pepper powder. Note, if you have littles eating this or you don’t like spicy foods, use less. This was pretty spicy.
- Salt.
- Pepper.
How to Make Buffalo Wing Seasoning
Making this homemade seasoning takes no time at all.
- Simply add all the ingredients to a small jar (I used a mason jar) and shake.
- You can also add everything to a small bowl and whisk well with a fork.
- Then, when you want to top your popcorn, sprinkle a little buffalo wing flavor over top.
I like to serve it over with buttered popcorn so the seasoning has something to stick to.
It’s a great way to further season a tasty low calorie snack. Plus it’s gluten-free (just double-check the ranch dressing packet you buy).
How long does popcorn seasoning last?
This recipe will last a few weeks in an air-tight container.
At the very least, check the expiration date on the packet of ranch dressing mix and write it down on the jar you store the spicy popcorn seasoning in. Throw it out before the expiration date.
Give it a good shake before you use it. There are roughly 4 uses in the jar, depending on how much popcorn you make.
