How To Make Buffalo Ranch Popcorn
Pop popcorn, warm the sauce mix, drizzle a little, toss well, repeat with remaining sauce mix, then dry it out on a sheet pan. That’s it. Okay, how about a few more details.
Heat the sauce mix ingredients in a small saucepan on the stove until melted, or in a small glass bowl in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds depending on your microwave.
Mix together well, then drizzle over warm, popped popcorn.
Toss together gently, but thoroughly, until all popcorn kernels are coated. Taste after the first toss. Add additional hot sauce or cayenne pepper for more heat.
Use two bamboo spatulas or your hands, whatever works for you.
Spread the coated popcorn on a baking sheet in an even layer, and sprinkle with ranch seasoning. I did not measure, I just sprinkled to coat the top.
Bake at 275°F for about 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once halfway through.
Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. As it cools, the coating sets and the crunch gets stronger. Serve with ranch seasoning and cayenne powder on the side for those that might want to add more as they go.
