Crunchy, buttery, and ridiculously snackable, weed popcorn is one of the easiest cannabis treats to make at home. It is quick, discreet and perfect for movie nights, chill evenings, or sharing with friends who enjoy light edibles. With just a few ingredients, you can transform plain popcorn into a delicious, infused snack that feels familiar yet delivers an elevated twist.


Because popcorn is light and easy to portion, it also works well for controlled dosing. This recipe can be made with either THC or CBD, depending on the experience you want. THC popcorn is best for a noticeable edible high, while CBD popcorn is ideal for relaxation without strong psychoactive effects. Both work the same way, simply by using the infused fat that matches your goal.

How to make weed popcorn

Step-by-step recipe

Step 1: Pop the popcorn: Pop your popcorn using a saucepan, popcorn maker, or air popper. If using a saucepan, heat a small amount of oil, add kernels, cover with a lid, and shake gently until popping slows. Transfer the popcorn to a large bowl.

Step 2: Melt the infused butter: In a small saucepan, melt your cannabis infused butter or cannabis infused coconut oil over very low heat. Keep the temperature gentle. Do not boil. If you are making CBD popcorn using CBD oil, melt regular butter first and then stir in the CBD oil at the end, after removing from the heat. This preserves flavour and potency.

Step 3: Pour and toss: Drizzle the melted infused butter evenly over the popcorn. Toss gently but thoroughly so all kernels are coated. For even dosing, pour slowly while mixing continuously.

Step 4: Season to taste: Add salt and any optional seasonings. For sweet popcorn, use a combination of cinnamon and sugar. For savoury popcorn, use paprika or nutritional yeast. Toss again until evenly coated.

Season to taste

Step 5: Serve and enjoy responsibly: Serve immediately while warm and fresh. If you are using THC, start with a small bowl and wait at least 45 to 90 minutes before eating more. If you are using CBD, the effects may feel milder and more relaxing.

Serve and enjoy responsibly

How to store

Weed popcorn is best fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container for up to two days. To restore crunch, spread it on a baking tray and warm it in the oven at low heat for a few minutes. Label clearly and store out of reach of children and pets.
