Important Edible Safety Note
Cannabis edibles can take longer to feel than inhaled cannabis and may last longer. Potency depends on the cannabutter, the amount used, how evenly it is mixed, and the serving size. Start with a low serving, wait before taking more, label infused foods clearly, and store them securely away from children, pets, and anyone who could mistake them for non-infused food. This recipe is for adults in places where cannabis use is legal; follow your local laws.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup cannabutter, cold and cubed
- ⅔ cup milk or alt milk
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Zest of 1 lemon
- ¾ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Equipment
- Oven
- Baking sheet
- Mixing bowl
Before You Start
Keep the cannabutter cold before cutting it into the flour, then shape the dough into a disk and cut it into 8 scones before baking. Let the scones cool until the crumb sets enough to handle.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients. Cut in cannabutter until crumbly.
- Add milk, vanilla, zest. Fold in blueberries.
- Pat into a 1-inch-thick disk, flouring your hands lightly if sticky, and cut into 6–8 even wedges.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 18–22 minutes, until the tops look set, the edges are lightly golden, and the centers spring back gently.
- Portion into 8 scones.
Dosing and Portioning Notes
Potency depends on the strength of your cannabutter, the amount used, how evenly it is mixed, and the final serving size. If the cannabutter is not labeled with usable potency information, dosing cannot be calculated from the recipe alone. Use the listed 8 scones to plan measured portions, and calculate dose from the labeled infusion strength before eating.
Tips for Best Results
- Keep the cannabutter cold and work it in quickly so the scones bake up crumbly instead of greasy.
- Cut the cold cannabutter through the flour until the mixture looks crumbly, then handle the dough lightly to keep the scones tender.
- Let the baked wedges cool on the pan until the crumb firms enough to lift without breaking.
Storage and Serving
Serve immediately. For safety, make only what you plan to serve and do not store infused leftovers.
Keep infused food counted, clearly labeled, and secured until serving. Do not leave infused food on counters, tables, or anywhere children, pets, or guests could reach it by accident. Discard anything that was left out, unlabeled, unattended, or cannot be clearly identified.
