Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare Your Cannabis-Infused Olive Oil

Before making your pizza, you need to have cannabis-infused olive oil on hand. Here’s a quick recipe to make it:

• Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of olive oil
  • 1/2 ounce of decarboxylated cannabis (this activates the THC)

• Directions:

  • Decarboxylate your cannabis by spreading it on a baking sheet and baking it at 240°F (115°C) for 30-40 minutes.
  • In a double boiler or saucepan on low heat, combine the decarboatxyled cannabis with the olive oil.
  • Let it simmer on low for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally.
  • Strain the mixture through a cheesecloth into a jar, and your cannabis-infused olive oil is ready!

Step 2: Make the Dough

1. In a small bowl, mix warm water and sugar, then sprinkle yeast over the top. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt.
3. Pour the yeast mixture and 2 tablespoons of cannabis-infused olive oil into the flour mixture. Stir until the dough starts to form.
4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.

Step 3: Assemble the Pizza

1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
2. Punch down the risen dough and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
3. Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Brush the top of the dough with a little more cannabis-infused olive oil for extra flavor and potency.
5. Spread your pizza sauce evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with shredded mozzarella.
6. Add your favorite toppings, whether it's classic pepperoni, fresh vegetables, or a combination of both.

Step 4: Bake the Pizza

1. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
2. Once out of the oven, allow it to cool for a couple of minutes.

Step 5: Optional Drizzle

For an extra kick, drizzle a little more cannabis-infused olive oil over the pizza right before serving. Be mindful of dosage – adding too much could make the pizza overly potent!

Dosage Guide:

• Start Low: If you're new to edibles, start with a low dosage. A good rule of thumb is to aim for 5-10 mg of THC per serving.
• Know Your Strain: The effects of your pizza will depend on the strain of cannabis you use. For example, sativa strains may create an energetic high, while indica strains offer more relaxing effects.

Serving Suggestions

This cannabis-infused pizza pairs perfectly with a fresh salad or a light drink like lemonade. Remember, edibles take time to kick in, so be patient and avoid consuming more until you feel the effects.

Cannabis-infused pizza is the perfect combination of comfort food and a relaxing experience. It’s an enjoyable way to medicate, but remember to be mindful of the potency and dosage. Whether you're relaxing with friends or treating yourself to a solo night in, this pizza will hit all the right notes.

Enjoy responsibly, and happy cooking!
