Peach cobbler is a timeless dessert that captures the essence of summer. August just so happens to be National Peach Month. Juicy peaches, a buttery crust, and a touch of cannabis make this dish a must-try. With its comforting flavors and subtle high, this cannabis-infused peach cobbler is perfect for wrapping up the summer in a blissful haze.
Ingredients:
- For the Filling:
- 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- For the Cobbler Topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cannabis-infused butter (see below for instructions)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Cannabis-Infused Butter:
To make cannabis-infused butter, you’ll need:
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 gram decarboxylated Mountain Mist cannabis from Veterans Choice Creations
1. Preheat your oven to 245°F (120°C). Break up the cannabis and spread it evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until the cannabis is golden brown. This process activates the THC.
2. Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add the decarboxylated cannabis and simmer on low heat for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally. Strain the butter through a cheesecloth to remove the plant material, and store it in the refrigerator until solid.
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch. Stir until the peaches are evenly coated and set aside.
3. In another mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the cannabis-infused butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until just combined.
4. Pour the peach filling into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Drop the cobbler topping over the peaches by spoonfuls, spreading it out evenly.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
6. Allow the cobbler to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy it warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
This cannabis-infused peach cobbler is the perfect dessert to savor the last days of summer. The juicy peaches combined with the relaxing effects of Mountain Mist create a delightful experience that’s both comforting and euphoric. So, gather your friends, light up the firepit, and enjoy this sweet farewell to summer with a dish that’s sure to be a hit.
