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
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ¼ cup cannabutter, softened
- ¼ cup peanut butter
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Whisk
Before You Start
Measure the cannabutter before mixing, roll the oat-cocoa dough into 12 balls, and chill them until firm enough to store.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Stir everything with a sturdy spatula for 1–2 minutes until the oats are hydrated, the cocoa is evenly mixed, and the dough holds together when squeezed.
- Roll into 12 even balls, pressing each one firmly so it holds together.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes, until firm enough to pick up without smearing.
- Portion into 12 balls.
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 12 balls to plan measured portions, and calculate dose from the labeled infusion strength before eating.
Tips for Best Results
- Stir the melted cannabutter through the oats, cocoa, and nut butter until the mixture looks evenly hydrated.
- Roll the mixture into 12 similar-size balls so the batch is easy to track.
- Chill until firm before packing, and keep the container clearly labeled.
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.
