Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Cheddar cheese powder
- 2 tablespoons Buttermilk powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
Instructions
In a bowl, combine the cheddar cheese powder, buttermilk powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and sugar.
Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly combined to create a fine, homogeneous seasoning blend.

To use, pop a batch of popcorn using your preferred method (air-popped, stovetop, or microwave).
While the popcorn is still hot, lightly spray or drizzle with oil or melted butter to help the seasoning stick.
