How to make cannabis sandwich bread
Making cannabis sandwich bread involves incorporating cannabis-infused oil or butter into your bread recipe. Start by preparing the cannabis infusion by gently heating ground cannabis in oil or butter, ensuring you decarboxylate the cannabis to activate its THC or CBD.
1. Dry Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups of all-purpose or bread flour
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
2. Wet Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups warm water (about 110°F/45°C)
3 tablespoons cannabis sandwich bread or butter or oil (adjust potency as needed)
Equipment
Mixing bowls
Bread pan
Oven
Thermometer (optional, for water temperature.
Instructions
1. Prepare the Yeast Mixture
First, combine the warm water and sugar in a bowl.
Sprinkle the yeast over the water and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until it becomes frothy. This activates the yeast.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Mix well.
3. Combine Ingredients
Add the frothy yeast and cannabis-infused butter or oil to the flour mixture.
Mix until the dough begins to come together.
4. Knead the Dough
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
5. First Rise
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap.
Let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
6. Shape and Second Rise
Punch the dough down and shape it into a loaf.
Place the dough in a greased bread pan. Cover it and let it rise for another 30 to 45 minutes.
7. Bake
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the bread for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
8. Cool and Serve
Allow the bread to cool on a wire rack before slicing. This helps it to settle down and avoid crumbling.
Tips
Dosing: Calculate the amount of THC, Tetrahydrocannabinol, or CBD Cannabidiol in your cannabis butter/oil to ensure safe consumption. Start with low doses if you’re unsure.
Storage: Store the bread in an airtight container for up to 3 days or in a freezer for longer use.
Pairing: This versatile bread works well with savory or sweet spreads.
Enjoy your bread and ensure compliance with local cannabis laws.
