Ingredients:
For the Cannabis-Infused Coconut Oil:
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1/8 ounce (3.5 grams) of your preferred cannabis strain (decarboxylated)
For the Muffins:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup cannabis-infused coconut oil (see instructions below)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves)
- Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts or chocolate chips for added texture and flavor
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cannabis-Infused Coconut Oil:
- Grind the decarboxylated cannabis finely.
- In a saucepan, combine the coconut oil and ground cannabis.
- Heat over low heat for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally. Make sure not to let it boil.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove the cannabis solids.
- Let the infused coconut oil cool. You can store any excess in an airtight container for future use.
2. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
3. Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix well.
4. Prepare Wet Ingredients:
- In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sugar, brown sugar, cannabis-infused coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
- Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- If desired, fold in chopped nuts or chocolate chips.
6. Fill Muffin Cups:
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with non-stick cooking spray.
- Spoon the muffin batter into the cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
7. Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Cool and Enjoy:
- Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
