How to Warm Up Already Popped Popcorn

How to Warm Up Already Popped Popcorn thumbnail
Reheat your popcorn if it gets cold.

Fresh, hot popcorn is a tasty snack that is low in calories compared to other snacks. A cup of oil-popped microwave popcorn contains only about 64 calories per cup, according to SELFNutritionData.com. But popcorn can be less than satisfying when it grows cold. Rather than popping up a new bag, you can warm your popped popcorn so it is hot and fresh-tasting again. Depending on your preferences, you can do this either in the microwave or in the oven. Does this Spark an idea?

      Place the cold popcorn into a microwave-safe dish. Cover the dish lightly with plastic wrap.

      Microwave the popcorn for 20 seconds on high. This should be enough to reheat it and make it enjoyable again.

    • 3

      Heat your oven to 300 degrees if you do not want to use the microwave. Put the popcorn into an oven-safe dish and place it into the oven.

    • 4

      Bake the popcorn until it is heated to your liking. This should take 5 to 10 minutes.
