This Cannabis Pumpkin pie recipe is the quintessential holiday dessert. I’ve designed this recipe to make 4 mini pies, each containing two servings/doses of cannabis. If you prefer you could also make this as a larger 9-inch pie.

Dosage for Marijuana Pumpkin Pie Recipe

This recipe will have about 40 mg THC per serving IF you made your marijuana butter from average cannabis (10% THC) and used 1/2 ounce of marijuana to make 1 cup butter.  That’s a pretty strong dose for a social gathering, so if you plan to use this Cannabis pumpkin pie recipe, at a dinner party, I would at least cut the dosage of this recipe in half.

To adjust the dosage up or down for your personal needs and to reflect the strength of the marijuana you are cooking with and the amounts you used to make your butter.

INGREDIENTS

Crust

  • 6 tablespoons vegetable shortening
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar granulated
  • 5-6 tablespoons ice water

 

Filling

  • 2 large eggs large
  • 1 can pumpkin 14 ounces, not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 or 15 ounces)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon dried ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS

 Prepare Crust

  1. Cut up the cannabutter, butter and shortening into small chunks and place it in the freezer for at least 15 minutes — the colder the better.  Whirl flour,  salt, and sugar in the food processor to blend.  Add cold butter and pulse just until well incorporated — the mixture will resemble coarse crumbs.
  2.  Remove mixture from food processor and place in a large bowl.  Add ice water and mix with clean hands just until it holds together. Mixture should be a little wet.  Pat dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes before rolling.
  3. The rule of thumb for flaky pie crusts is to handle the dough as little as possible.  The best way I’ve found to do this is to roll the dough between 2 layers of plastic wrap or waxed paper.  This method also makes it easy to transfer the dough into the pie plate.
  4. Remove your disk of dough from the refrigerator and divide it into quarters.  Place one quarter on a piece of plastic wrap or waxed paper and lightly sprinkle with flour.   Cover with another piece of plastic or waxed paper. 
  5.  Use a rolling pin to roll out dough into a circle about an inch larger in all directions than the pie pan.  Remove top layer of plastic or paper, center upside down pie plate on dough, and flip the whole thing over.  Remove the 2nd layer of plastic or waxed paper and press dough into the pie plate.  
  6. If desired, use fingers to make a nice edge on pie by evening out the edges then use thumb and index finger of one hand to pinch crust around the index finger of the other hand, to make a scalloped edge.  
  7. Place pie crusts in the freezer while you prepare filling.

Prepare Filling

  1. In a large bowl, beat eggs with an electric mixer until frothy. 
  2. Add pumpkin, sweetened condensed milk or dulce de leche, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and vanilla and beat until well combined. 
  3. Pour into prepared crust(s).  Bake for 15 minutes, reduce temperature to 350 degrees F and bake for another 25 minutes or just until set.  Serve warm, at room temperature or cold. Garnish with whipped cream if desired.
