Hemp butter and hemp cake recipe

Hemp Butter in preparation

One of the healthiest ways to absorb the cannabinoids contained in hemp is to make extracts from various parts of the plant (leaves, stems or inflorescences) and consume them as a side dish. When smoking cannabis, only about 30% of the active substances enter the bloodstream, which have a faster and weaker effect; in addition, the smoke irritates the respiratory tract and is toxic. The therapeutic as well as recreational effect is much stronger with extraction products consumed with food, such as butter or hemp oil. Keep this in mind especially for people who have not yet been exposed to THC and do not have a built up tolerance (such people I advise against consuming butter).

use hemp butter? It is an ideal product for baked goods, soups, sauces, it is also suitable for cold consumption, such as spread on bread. Today you will learn the recipe for magical hemp cakes, which are not only very healthy, but will also provide you with many unforgettable moments ;). We will start with an extract in the form of hemp butter, which we will use later in the recipe for hemp cakes.

To prepare such a decoction you do not need special equipment. You will make hemp butter in your own home, for its preparation you will need:

• a large pot (about 3l)
• a large metal strainer (which will not dip into the pot, but will rest on its edges)
• a small metal strainer
• a small glass jar or bowl
• gauze
• 5 large spoons of coconut oil
• 3-4 grams of dried hemp (I recommend Cannabis Sativa varieties, their stimulating properties will be multiplied).

prepare hemp butter (version 1):

1. grind hemp flowers finely or chop them with a knife and then roast them in a dry pan for about 2 minutes.

2. In a pot, boil a few liters of water, insert a strainer in which you place a bowl of oil.

3. dissolve the oil and add the ground flowers to it. Cook 2-3h covered to get the highest possible temperature.

4 Take the butter off the heat, it should be slightly green and smell creamy. Strain the oil through a sieve with gauze or a napkin, squeezing out all the fat from the herb well.

5 Put the butter in the refrigerator to solidify for about 30 - 40 minutes. After this time, the butter is ready. It should be consumed within 3-4 days.

If you don't have a large and small strainer or even a large pot, don't worry, you can prepare the butter in a smaller pot. You will need:

• small pot
• a small glass jar or bowl
• gauze
• 5 large spoons of coconut oil
• 3-4 grams of dried hemp (I recommend Cannabis Sativa varieties, their stimulating properties will be multiplied).

How to prepare hemp butter (version 2):

1. Finely grind or chop the hemp flowers with a knife and then roast them in a dry pan for about 2 minutes.
2. In a saucepan, combine water and coconut oil and melt it on low heat for about 5-7 minutes. The most important step here is to dissolve the oil as slowly as possible, without burning it.

3) Add the dried hemp to the melted butter and stir thoroughly with a wooden spoon.

4.Thus soaked dried and butter must cook about 2h on a tiny fire, on the smallest possible flame. The butter or hemp must not be allowed to brown.

5 Remove from the heat and leave the butter to solidify. When this happens, the fat from the extraction will separate from the water on its own, then put it in a separate container and store it in the refrigerator for 30 - 40 minutes.

Now that we have the butter we get down to baking cookies.

Preparation of hemp cakes

Wash figs, cut into slices. Combine the remaining ingredients in a tall dish and knead the dough until smooth. Shape the cookies as desired and sized, then top each with a slice of fig. Bake the cookies for 15 minutes at 190 degrees C. Consume after they have cooled.

*The more butter you add to the cookies, the stronger the therapeutic and recreational effect you will achieve. To begin with, I recommend everyone to do tests with a small amount at home ????

Cheers! ????
