Crunchy Marijuana-Infused Crackers Recipe(Suitable for Vegans)
This vegan-friendly edible is crunchy, and it will satisfy your munchies (although we don’t promise you won’t experience more munchies afterward!). By the way, this easy-peasy recipe can be tailored towards satisfying your sweet tooth, yet you can also choose to stick with the savory salty version that is sure to please that gluttonous foodie inside you.
This particular recipe is also travel-friendly, so if you’re looking for a cannabis-infused treat that is easy to carry around and share with friends, then this one definitely deserves a try!
Servings: 1
List of Ingredients
1.1 – 2 tablespoons peanut butter
2.0.20 – 1 gram of weed
3. 1 graham crackers sheet
Important Notes
#1. Feel free to substitute peanut butter with any other type of nut butter you adore, such as cashew butter, hazelnut butter, almond butter or tahini, among others (although we want to highlight that when consumed in moderation, peanut butter is packed with health gains that deserve one’s attention).
In the case you are allergic to nuts, you can try coconut butter or pumpkin seed butter. In fact, you might be pleasantly surprised how easy it is to prep a jar of homemade nut or nut-free, highly nutritional butter full of awesome benefits for your physical and mental health. Don’t forget that depending on the type of nut-free or nut-based butter you choose to use, you can reap different health benefits, so it is a great idea to choose accordingly by acknowledging the needs and demands of your body and mind.
Even though nut consumption is known to be beneficial to humans’ well-being in general, it is always worth the efforts doing some extra research when it comes to providing your body with the best type of nuts that can work wonders as a natural source of vegetable protein, fibers, minerals, and antioxidants while satisfying your cravings and delighting your palate. Plus, we think this can be further interpreted as a friendly reminder to always stay nutty, lol!

#2. Adding 1 gram of weed per serving is enough to get you hellahyphy high (by the way, this rule applies not only to beginner cannabis users but to the experienced ones, too). As a rule of thumb, remember that using 1 gram of a weed featuring 10% THC potency converts into 100 mg THC in the form of edibles, respectively 1 gram of weed of 20% THC = 200 mg THC. For the record, ingesting 50 mg of THC per serving is considered a dose that would require even some of the advanced cannabis connoisseurs to cancel any plans for the evening to fully and comfortably indulge in a higher state of body and mind, since the effects of edibles take longer to feel but also last longer (typically, the effects last for about 2 – 4hours, like splashing waves of continuous pleasure for the senses).
It is important to mind that when relying on fatty substances to extract active cannabinoids through the application of heat as in this particular recipe, in reality, you get to extract about 30% – 50% of the active cannabinoids, meaning that 1 gram of weed of 10% THC potency actually results in about 30-50 mg of THC per serving instead of 100 mg.
What we recommend for beginners is that you start with a mild dose of about 0.20 grams of weed per serving. Don’t hesitate to use even less, especially in the case you are about to cook with a highly THC potent strain (meaning any strain containing over 20% THC), since opting for 0.20 gram of 20% THC potent strain will result in about 12 mg THC per serving which is considered an excellent, mild, and pleasurable dose for the newbies.
Always wait for a minimum of 90 minutes (and better yet, wait for 120 – 150 minutes) in order to make sure that the full effects of consuming your edible have kicked in. It is best to experiment with edibles in a safe, comfortable environment to avoid paranoid episodes or whatever other traps your mind might have in store for you when under the influence of marijuana in an environment and/or among people that make you feel out of ease.
Also, since the effects of edibles last significantly longer than respiratory methods of cannabis consumption such as vaping and smoking, we also encourage you to always try a new edibles recipe on a free day/night when you have zero plans or tasks waiting ahead.
Ultimately, don’t forget to have fun when consuming edibles. Join that buzzing edibles fever with an open mind and self-control, and you won’t regret upgrading your skills and understanding in this flourishing niche. After all, sooner or later, the high after consuming just about any cannabis-infused treat will inevitably disperse, and you will only become better prepared and more aware of what is the best working THC dose per serving for you.

#3. You can substitute graham crackers with crunchy bagel crackers or rice crackers. Although we did find graham crackers to feel most satisfying to our taste (which probably has something to do with bringing some sweet childhood memories of lazy summer weekends spent by the lake, munching on non-cannabis-infused crackers and marshmallows while our elder cousins were getting high like a kite), we really wanted to kindly remind you that suitable substitutes can work great, too!
#4. First and foremost, this recipe works without the need of cannabutter because of the miracle of decarboxylation. When decarboxylating your weed by applying heat to cannabis flowers, the non-psychoactive THCA gets converted into THC (respectively, CBDA converts into CBD).
While decarbing cannabis is a fairly simple process, we highly encourage you not to underestimate this crucial step. Too much heat and/or too much time spent in the oven, and your cannabis flowers will lose potency as THC will actually start to degrade, turning into CBN. Too little heat and/or time spent in the oven, and you might fail to reach the top THC potency we are all craving for as cannabis aficionados.
Ultimately, decarbing cannabis the right way is a bit of trial-and-error experience. The more diligent you are about tracing this process, the faster you will become a weed decarb ninja because as with most things cannabis-related, proper decarboxylation depends on a number of unique factors such as the moisture content of your cannabis flowers, and even the time a bud has been dried and cured, so mind the tiny details and you will understand how to decarb weed better after each recipe you try out.

#5. The strain you choose to use for this recipe matters (like a lot). Yeah, this one seems like a no brainer but in the process of experimenting with this recipe, we found out how immensely different effects one is capable of experience based on the type of strain used. For the purpose of sharing our experience with you as concisely and precisely as possible, here’s a brief summary of the insights we came up with. We believe these will be of great assistance when it comes to choosing the type of strain that fits your vibes best.
* We used homegrown cannabis flowers and calculated the cost per serving (including all the ingredients, and not merely the weed we used) at less than $3!
* We tried out three different strains picked randomly (the truth is, we simply had to stick with the homegrown stash we had available at the time of experimenting with this awesome recipe): Gelato (27% THC – 0.18% CBD), CB Diesel (20% CBD – less than 1% THC), and Early Miss (20% THC – 0.70% CBD).
The Gelato strain-based edible tasted delicious, which is exactly what we expected from an innovatively palatable strain like this balanced hybrid. More importantly, Gelato strain is impressively powerful. Finishing flowering within 8 – 10 weeks, this high-yielding superstar features towering levels of about 27% THC! Needless to say, when infused into an edible, it makes up for a truly potent, delightfully flavored batch that provides the best of both worlds, thanks to the 55% Indica and 45% Sativa genetics.
The CB Diesel-based edible turned out to be one of our team’s absolute top winners. We think medicating with CBD by munching on this quick and easy cannabis-infused treat was nothing less but a brilliant and healthy way to get medicated on the go, using only organic cannabis flowers and simple ingredients! CB Diesel is a strain worth giving a try to grow as it is fairly easy to cultivate, finishing flowering within 8 – 10 weeks and providing excellent yields. However, as highlighted by many cannabis experts, CBD and THC tend to work best when in combination, and so we decided to add a drop of THC weed tincture to our CB Diesel-based edible, making this potent CBD remedy even better with the addition of an extra splash of THC that can be added or not as desired, thanks to the convenience of working with weed tinctures.
The Early Miss-based edible provided the most relaxing effects after consumption, just like we expected from this Indica-dominant bijou, topping about 20% THC, and grown from seed to harvest within as little as about 10 weeks. This 60% Indica – 30% Sativa beauty-infused treat provided efficient and lasting pain relief.
Cooking Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (163 degrees Celsius). In the meantime, lay out a sheet of aluminum foil. Make sure the aluminum foil sheet is big enough to be wrapped up over each graham cracker individually.
Step 2: Break your graham cracker in half, and proceed with spreading peanut butter onto one half of each cracker.
Step 3: Grind your weed finely (chopping it with a knife can also work well in the absence of a grinder. In a pinch, just pick your cannabis flowers apart as finely as possible using no special tools but your fingers).
Step 4: It’s time to sprinkle the finely ground cannabis flowers onto your peanut butter-topped graham crackers. You want to make sure all pieces of weed make close contact with the peanut butter, for you will rely on the fats present in the butter to extract THC during the process of decarboxylation.
Step 5: Now, sandwich your graham crackers together. Next, wrap each sandwiched cracker in aluminum foil and place in the oven. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes and keep wrapped in the aluminum foil for another 10 – 15 minutes before consumption.
Step 6: For a sweet tooth madness touch, top your weed crackers with fruit or drizzle with honey, maple syrup, jam and/or melted chocolate. Munch on and enjoy to the fullest!
Classic Weed-Infused Crackers Recipe(Attention! Decadently Cheesy!)
This sinfully delicious weed-infused cracker recipe is sure to leave you craving for more. Do mind, though, that it is best when consumed immediately after preparation when the shredded cheese fusion is simply irresistible.
Servings: 1
List of Ingredients
1. 0.20 – 1 gram of dried cannabis flowers
2. 1 – 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese and parmesan cheese
3. 1 graham crackers sheet
Important Notes
#1. We don’t find this particular recipe to be as travel-friendly as the one we just shared above, however, in the case you choose to top it with cream cheese and/or fresh vegetables prior to consumption, it becomes perfectly tasty to indulge in while on the go, too.
For an extra creamy touch, we recommend spreading a spoon of cream cheese on top of your crackers once you are done baking them. Avocado spread also works beautifully! Adding more fatty substances will further help your body make the most from the active cannabinoids present in your delicious pot crackers. Not the least, you can add freshly chopped green onions, parsley, garlic, as well as any of your favorite veggies, such as tomatoes and cucumbers. You can further sprinkle some cayenne pepper and/or smoked red pepper for a mighty dose of ultra-savory delightfulness.
Cooking Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (163 degrees Celsius). Finely grind your dried cannabis flowers.
Step 2: Mix shredded cheddar and parmesan cheese in a suitable heatproof bowl. Place the bowl in the oven for only a minute or so to let the cheese gently (but not fully) melt. In the meantime, lay a sheet of aluminum paper and break a graham cracker in half.
Step 3: Spread the slightly melted cheddar and parmesan cheese mix onto each half of your graham cracker. Next, proceed with sprinkling each half of the crackers with the finely ground weed, making sure the tiny pot particles are equally transferred on the cracker’s surface, and in close contact with the cheese mix in order to maximize THC extraction.
Step 4: Sandwich the two halves of your cheese-and-ground-weed topped graham crackers and wrap each “sandwich” in aluminum foil. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes, wrap in aluminum foil and let it sit for 5 – 10 minutes before consumption. Enjoy alone or with friends!
