Here are 5 healthy recipes that may change your life:
1. Cannabutter
Cannabutter, often known as cannabis butter, is a common ingredient in marijuana edibles, including the famous brownies, and it’s one of the most acceptable ways to consume cannabis if you don’t want to smoke it.
Step 1: Decarboxylation
Decarboxylating your cannabis is the first step you must take. This process, also called “decarbing”, entails baking your marijuana to activate THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids.
Spread the cannabis evenly in a baking dish after gently breaking the correct quantity of weed. Bake recently harvested, wet weed for an hour, cured, high-grade weed for 45 minutes, and older or lesser quality weed for 20 minutes. Every 10 minutes, stir the plant regularly until the color of the cannabis shifts from bright green to a deep brownish green. You’re done now.
Step 2: Cannabutter Stove Top Infusion
You can manufacture weed butter using this technique if you have weed, fat, time, and a
kitchen.
Ingredients
- 12 cups of water
- 8 ounces of melted or clarified butter or oil
- 12 ounces of decarboxylated marijuana
Directions
- Melt butter over low heat in a medium saucepan and add water.
- Add the decarboxylated cannabis once the butter has melted. Use a wooden spoon to combine, then top with a lid thoroughly.
- Allow the mixture to simmer for 4 hours. To make sure your butter isn’t burning, stir it every half-hour.
- Strain using a sieve into a container after four hours. Cool the butter until it reaches room temperature.
Use right away or store for up to six months in the freezer or refrigerator in a tightly sealed mason jar.

Directions:

5. Double Chocolate Weed Brownies
The famous marijuana brownie is the best edible for two reasons: They are simple to create and, according to chocolate, even marijuana tastes delicious. While a prepackaged mix can be used in a hurry, cannabutter in the batter takes homemade brownies to a new level of deliciousness. Additionally, this recipe calls for a single bowl for simple cleaning.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup salt-free butter
- 1 gram of high-grade marijuana flower
- 1/4 cup additional natural cocoa powder for the pan
- Cannabutter (Recipe Mentioned Above)
- 1/2 cup of chopped dark chocolate
- 1 1/4 cups of granulated sugar
- 1 spoonful molasses
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1/8 of a teaspoon of kosher salt
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup universal flour
- 1/2 cup toasted nuts chopped (optional)
Directions
- Melt the dark chocolate and cannabis butter. Remove from heat, and add salt, vanilla, and sugar.
- Add one egg at a time and mix thoroughly after each addition. Add the chopped nuts (if used) and stir.
- Combine the flour and cocoa powder with the chocolate mixture.
- Place the pan with the batter and bake for 25 minutes to make a glossy top that cracks. Watch the edges closely since they will begin to firm up first. Check by sticking a toothpick close to the corner; it should contain a few wet crumbs.
- Before cutting into 16 brownies, allow cooling for at least 10 minutes on a wire rack.
The brownies can be kept for up to a week in an airtight container.
Conclusion
These recipes are great for experimenting with your consumption styles if you love cannabis. You must understand how edibles function in comparison to other methods of intake. The benefits usually take effect immediately when you vape cannabis oil or smoke joints. With edibles, it sometimes takes up to two hours!
As a result, you must fight the impulse to consume more THC than is advised. You can get a bad outcome like THC-induced paranoia if you don’t.
