What You’ll Need

  • 1¼ cups all-purpose flour: white, all-purpose, AP flour works best in this recipe
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda: don’t confuse this for baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt: kosher salt or table salt works
  • 1 cup sugar: I use white sugar, but you could substitute cannasugar
  • ½ cup cannabutter: Buy my Bliss Cannabutter or make your own. This should be softened to room temperature for the best results
  • ½ cup peanut butter: Natural, creamy, or chunky – your choice. Or try cannabis-infused peanut butter for an extra potency kick
  • 1 egg: for consistency

The Step-by-Step Process

  • Step 1 – Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Step 2 – In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift the flour and mix in the baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • Step 3 – In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, add the sugar, cannabutter, and peanut butter.
  • Step 4 – Using a hand mixer, cream the ingredients together until the mixture is light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes.

  • Step 5 – Add the beaten egg to the creamed sugar and mix until well incorporated. Set aside.
  • Step 6 – With the hand mixer on low, gently incorporate the dry ingredients into wet ingredients.
  • Step 7 – Turn the mixer to medium speed and mix until a dough is formed. The consistency of the dough should be able to ball up and hold shape.
  • Step 8 – Using your hands, create a dough ball approximately 1″ in size. Place each ball on a clean baking pan with 3-4 inches of space between the dough balls and the edge of the pan.

  • Step 9 – Flatten the dough balls once with a fork, then turn the fork 90° and flatten again to create a crosshatch pattern.
  • Step 10 – Place the cookies in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Step 11 – After 10 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 1-2 minutes.
  • Step 12 – Enjoy the cookies warm, or wait until they cool. Store extra cookies in an airtight container for a later time.

Note: complete step-by-step printable instructions are located in the recipe card below.

Storage Instructions

You can store these cookies in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to a week.

You can also store them in a sealed container in the fridge where they will last up to two weeks, or store them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 6 or more months in the freezer.

Alternate Infusion Options

You can’t make cannabis peanut butter cookies without one of the staple recipes important for every cannabis kitchen: coconut oilcannabutter, sugar, or concentrates.

You can use any option you want, or mix and match them to adjust the potency and taste of your final product.

Cannabis Oil or Cannabutter

Used interchangeably, baking with cannabis oil or cannabutter is an easy way to infuse a broad spectrum of compounds like CBD or THC from the cannabis plant and get them into the food you are eating.

As a heads up, you will want to make sure you have one of these recipes prepared BEFORE diving into making your own cannabis-infused peanut butter cookies.

The process involves cannabis decarboxylation and then oil infusion, which takes approximately 5 hours.

The process of infusion is nearly the same, but does have some differences, which is why I have a few different guides for you:

Again, it is your choice which one you want to make, both work well in this recipe.

Cannabis Sugar

You can also make these cannabis peanut butter cookies with cannabis-infused sugar if you have some on hand.

Cannasugar is made by pouring a QWET tincture or a Green Dragon tincture over white sugar and letting the alcohol evaporate off, leaving cannabis-infused sugar behind.

It is entirely up to you whether or not you want to use cannabis oil or cannasugar in this recipe.

Additionally, you could use BOTH infused oil or butter and infused sugar together for an extra potent batch of medicated cookies.

Cannabis Concentrates

You can also make cannabis edibles with cannabis concentrates like FECO.

First, check to see if your concentrate needs to be decarbed before consuming.

Some concentrates and extracts like distillate and FECO do not need to be decarbed first, while other concentrates like wax and shatter need to be decarbed before being used in edibles.

Once the concentrate is ready to go, you will simply mix it in with the butter as called for in this recipe.

Then prepare the recipe as described in the instructions below.

Different Dietary Options

Cannabis-infused food doesn’t have to be junk food, but it can still be a tasty treat that you enjoy.

This also makes sure that your edibles don’t inadvertently contain something you happen to be allergic to or have had problems with in the past.

In other words, this recipe is accommodating to more diets than “normal” peanut butter cookies, whilst still being absolutely delicious and a great vehicle for your cannabis.

For Gluten-Free Cookies

If you are looking for a delicious gluten-free peanut butter cookie recipe, we have had great success with using cassava flour. Swapping cassava flour for traditional all-purpose flour makes these cookies gluten-free.

These cookies can also work with the Paleo diet if you use seed butter in place of peanut butter (cassava is not a grain, but a tropical root vegetable).

You can generally get cassava flour at your local Whole Foods or even Wal-Mart, or you can . Check your supermarket first though; with the growing popularity of the Paleo diet, it’s become a lot easier to get.

Gluten-Free Recipe Note

To make these cookies gluten free, use the same recipe below with the following changes:

  • Add another egg for a total of 2 beaten eggs
  • Swap 1 cup cassava flour with ¼ reserved for the traditional all-purpose flower
  • When following the instructions, only add 1 cup of cassava flour at first. Add the reserved ¼ by the tablespoon, as needed, to get the right consistency in the dough

For Dairy-Free Cookies

This recipe is dairy-free if you use cannabis coconut oil rather than cannabutter.

Don’t like (or can’t eat) peanut butter? You can also make this recipe with homemade hemp seed butter.

  1. I made this with 1/2 the cannabutter and the cookies were great but crunchy rather than chewy. I plan on using the full amount of the butter this time. What can I add to make them more chewy?

  2. Hi Leslie. Did you add in regular butter to make up the full amount of required butter that the recipe calls for? You always want to use the total amount of butter called for, but it can be divided between cannabutter and regular butter. Not enough butter will result in crunchier cookies.

    To make your cookies more chewy, you can try adding a bit more moisture to the dough. One option is to add an extra egg yolk, as it contributes to the chewiness of baked goods. Additionally, you can experiment with increasing the brown sugar content, as it helps retain moisture and promotes a softer texture. I hope this helps. Happy baking!
