Introduction to cooking with cannabis
Few things are better than a delicious homemade meal, and now that cannabis is being legalized in more and more states (and countries), making your own infusions is easier than ever. From salty sandwiches to sweet treats and everything in between, we’ve compiled the best recipes for marijuana-infused foods from all over the internet. Experts of West Coast Bud have also included cooking instructions for two of the most popular ways to introduce THC or CBD into your food. You can use either of these methods as the basis for your recipe (or both if you’re feeling very ambitious). If you’re a seasoned cook or just looking for how to make cannabis edibles, these 10 cannabinoid recipes are sure to appeal to you. For those who like simple and straightforward recipes, here are quick and easy cannabis edibles recipes for making your own cannabis-infused honey, for example. The process is similar to making butter or marijuana oil – you just use raw honey instead of one of these ingredients. You can also use this method to infuse other types of sugar (like white granulated sugar) as well as other sweeteners like agave nectar or brown rice syrup.
Cannabis Chocolate Chip Cookies
These cannabis chocolate chip cookies are the perfect treat to make for your friends and family. They’re super easy and best edible recipes to prepare, and they taste great!
The recipe calls for 1/2 cup of cannabis butter, which you can easily make by grinding up some bud into a fine powder (use an electric coffee grinder). You’ll also need all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, brown sugar and white sugar. The ingredients will come together in three easy steps: mix up the dry ingredients; mix up the wet ones; then combine them together with a wooden spoon or spatula until it’s all combined into one big dough ball that looks like this.
Now it’s time to roll out the dough and cut out the cookies. You can use a cookie cutter or even just draw shapes with a knife or kitchen scissors. If you are making bubble gum, you will need molds with two separate compartments – one for the liquid bubble gum mixture and one for the dry ingredients such as sugar, gelatin powder and food coloring (optional). If you’re making regular edible cookie dough recipes, all you have to do is spread the dough out on a lined baking sheet and place in the oven for about 12 minutes or until golden brown. When the cookies are ready, take them out of the oven and let them cool before using.
Weed Brownies
“There’s nothing quite like a weed brownie. They’re an indulgent treat that makes you feel relaxed, happy and sleepy all at once. Making your own cannabis edibles is easy to do and can be a fun activity for you and your friends to enjoy together.
The ingredients needed for this edible cannabis recipe are: 1/2 cup of flour (all purpose or whole wheat), 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (optional), 3 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted butter if you prefer not using vegetable oil or melted butter then please omit it from this recipe altogether as well as replacing with another type of fat such as coconut oil instead;
Preheat oven 350 degrees F (180 C). Mix together dry ingredients in medium bowl until combined well then add wet ingredients except egg whites until fully incorporated into batter; Add beaten egg whites lastly before pouring into greased pan(s). Bake 25 minutes until firm yet tender when pierced with toothpick inserted near center comes out cleanly without any crumbs attached
Strawberry Weed Jam
Strawberry Weed Jam is the perfect way to get your medicine and eat it, too. This recipe combines two of our favorite things: strawberries and weed.
Ingredients:
1 quart fresh or frozen strawberries (or whatever you have on hand)
2 cups sugar
3 tablespoons lemon juice (optional)
Instructions: 1. In a large pot over medium heat add all ingredients except for lemon juice if using it, bring to a simmer then reduce heat until jam thickens about 10 minutes stirring occasionally so it doesn’t burn at bottom of pan 2., Add more sugar if necessary 3., Stir in lemon juice if using 4., Let cool completely before storing in airtight containers or jars 5., Keep refrigerated up until 6 months
Cannabis Tea
Cannabis tea is an excellent way to consume cannabis. The tea has a mild, earthy flavor that’s easy to drink and won’t overpower other flavors in your meal or dessert. You can make this recipe with either loose-leaf or pre-bagged tea. If using loose-leaf, I recommend steeping for 15 minutes instead of 10; this will allow for more THC absorption into the water before straining out any residue from your cannabis leaves (if using).
The recipe is super simple. Just add the following ingredients to a large pot of water: 1 Cup Water 1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice 2 Teaspoons Baking Soda (optional) 1 Large Piece Of Cannabis Leaf 2-3 Tablespoons Honey. Bring the water to a boil, then add the lemon juice and baking soda (this helps cut through the cannabis flavor). Once your water has reached a boil again, add your cannabis leaf and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for another 5 minutes before straining out the leaf with a mesh strainer.
Once your cannabis has been strained, add the honey and stir until dissolved. Pour over ice and enjoy!
Marijuana Ice Cream
This marijuana ice cream is one of the best edible recipes that calls for 1/2 cup of cannabis oil and 3 cups of heavy whipping cream. It’s super easy to make and only takes about 20 minutes in total. The end result will be smooth, creamy, and full of delicious marijuana flavor.
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except vanilla extract (if using). Stir until well combined
Pour mixture into your ice cream maker according to its instructions
When the mixture has finished churning, transfer it into an airtight container or freezer safe Ziploc bag and place back in the freezer until set–this should take about 2 hours
Mini Mary Blueberry Pies
The Mini Mary Blueberry Pies are a great way to enjoy the sweet and tart flavor of blueberries in an edible cannabis form. This recipe is easy to follow, but there are a few things you should keep in mind when making this recipe:
Make sure you have enough time on your hands for this recipe because it takes about 45 minutes from start to finish!
You’ll need a food processor or blender for this recipe–you can’t make these pies without one!
Weed Churros
Weed churros are the perfect way to end a cannabis-infused meal.
This is also the best cannabis edible recipe. It is super easy to make and requires only four ingredients: cannabutter or cannaoil, cinnamon sugar, flour and water. You can also add vanilla extract if you want a more complex flavor profile that goes well with any type of dessert (or breakfast).
Here’s what you’ll need:
1 cup cannabutter/cannaoil -OR- 1/4 cup each of butter and vegetable oil
2 cups all purpose flour * 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon * 1/2 teaspoon salt
Weed Milk
Weed milk is a deliciously simple cannabis edible that’s great for beginners. It’s also a great way to use up any leftover weed you might have lying around the house after smoking your evening joint, so it’s perfect for those who have an ounce or two left over from their last purchase.
In order to make weed milk, you’ll need:
1 cup whole milk (you can also use 2% or skim if you’d like)
2 tablespoons cannabutter or coconut oil (we used coconut oil because we’re dairy-free)
Weed Bacon
To make weed bacon, you’ll need:
1 pound of ground pork or turkey
1/2 cup chopped onion (or 2 tablespoons dried minced onion)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (can be omitted if you don’t have it)
To make the weed bacon, follow these steps:
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for the pepperoni and roll into meatballs that are about 1 inch in diameter. You should get about 20 meatballs out of this recipe depending on how big or small you make them! 2.. Place your meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake them at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until cooked through (about 20 minutes). 3.. While they’re cooking, line another baking sheet with parchment paper and lay out slices of pepperoni flat side down so they aren’t overlapping each other too much (you may want two separate sheets). 4.. When both pans are done baking evenly throughout their entirety remove from ovens then place one slice per piece onto each individual serving plate before topping off each one with two halves from another slice so that there’s plenty left over after serving time comes around again tomorrow morning when everyone wakes up hungover from last night’s shenanigans.”
Cannabis Infused Pancakes
The first step to making these cannabis infused pancakes is to gather all of the ingredients. You will need one cup of flour, two tablespoons of sugar, one teaspoon baking powder and pinch of salt. Next you will need three eggs and one cup milk or water (you can use whatever you have on hand). You will also need 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil which I prefer because it adds an extra layer of flavor!
Finally we need 1/4-1/2 gram ground cannabis flower per person eating them (or more if you want them strong). Grind up your weed finely so that it mixes evenly throughout your batter when you add it later on in this process!
