Easy CBD edible recipes can be a godsend when you are looking for ways to get creative in the kitchen. Not only is making your own edibles a nice way to save money, but you can also turn this hobby into a source of income. On top of that, making your own edibles is the best way to ensure that they are made using quality and healthy ingredients, and cooking gives you complete control over the CBD concentration in each product.
You don’t need great cooking skills to make simple and delicious edibles. Here are some of the easiest CBD edibles to make yourself.
CBD Gummies
Starting with what is easily one of the most popular edibles in the world. Both cannabis and CBD gummies are easy to make. A quick online search will yield many different recipes, but most of them rely on two key ingredients: CBD itself, and gelatin. Other ingredients like honey, fruit juice, and colorants can be used to add flavor and beauty to the gummies. And different silicone molds can be used for aesthetic purposes.
But at its core, making CBD gummies consists of heating up the gelatin and then mixing it with CBD. And while a silicone mold can make it easier to pour and later extract your gummies, you can get away with using an ice tray in a pinch. Gummies can be made using CBD oil, tinctures, isolates, and even by adding ground up hemp to the gelatin. Just make sure to decarboxylate it first.
Look around for CBD gummy recipes and find one that looks delicious to you. Most of them are shockingly simple.
CBD Chocolate
Making CBD chocolate is very similar to making gummies. All you need to do is melt the chocolate, add CBD to it, mix everything together, then pour your infused chocolate into molds. There are some details you need to keep an eye on. For example, chocolate and water don’t mix, so it’s important to keep humidity out of the mixture. Here, too, you can use many different forms of CBD to get the desired effect. If you don’t wish to change the taste of the chocolate, use CBD isolates. They are tasteless.
CBD Coffee and Other Beverages
One of the benefits of CBD is that it remains active in a wide variety of circumstances. For example, if you don’t want to drink CBD oil by itself, you can simply add it to your freshly brewed coffee and enjoy an infused drink. CBD can be added in a similar way to all types of beverages, including tea, beer, wine, water, milkshakes, etc. Cold CBD water can be a nice refreshment to bring when exercising outside, for example.
CBD Brownies
There is a simple trick that can be used to add CBD to all sorts of baked goods. CBD dissolves well into both oil and butter, all you need to do is heat either substance, then mix it with CBD oil or isolate.
Armed with that knowledge, you can go shop for brownie mixes that have oil or butter as part of the recipe on the label. Buy the mix, follow the instructions on the label, and when it comes time to add either oil or butter, use your infused creation instead. That will lead to a CBD-infused baked good created with minimum effort.
