Sliced plain banana bread with a moist golden crumb

Measure the infused ingredient

Prepare your cannabutter, then estimate the batch with the THC potency calculator. Use the strength of your own infusion rather than assuming a standard amount of THC.

Dose deliberately: potency depends entirely on the strength and amount of your infusion. Calculate the full batch, divide evenly and label infused food clearly. Effects from edibles can be delayed.

GATHER & MEASURE

Ingredients

FROM PREP TO FINISH

Make it, step by step

Whisk the wet ingredients
Heat the oven to 350°F. Grease and parchment-line a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
Whisk mashed banana, plain butter, cannabutter, oil and brown sugar until combined. Whisk in eggs, sour cream and vanilla.
Fold, gently
In another bowl whisk flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Fold dry ingredients into the banana mixture until barely combined. Fold in walnuts or chocolate if using.
Fill the pan & bake
Scrape into the pan and smooth the top. Bake 52 to 60 minutes, tenting loosely with foil if the top browns too quickly.
Cool, slice & label
Cool in the pan 15 minutes, then transfer to a rack and cool at least 30 minutes before slicing.
Cut into 10 even slices and calculate potency based on the infused butter used.

Fold gently and allow time to cool

If your bananas are only yellow, roast them in their peels at 350°F until dark and soft, then cool before mashing.
Stop mixing as soon as the flour disappears to avoid a tough loaf.
The flavor and texture are even better after the cooled loaf rests overnight.

Storage and make-ahead

Let the loaf cool before wrapping. Freeze individual slices so you can thaw one portion at a time.

Infusion strength & portions

Count the 2 Tbsp cannabutter in this loaf; the other 4 Tbsp butter is plain. Estimate the whole batch from your own butter’s strength, then divide by 10 even slices. If its strength is unknown, THC per slice is unknown.

For a lighter batch, replace some of the infused ingredient with its plain equivalent. Mix thoroughly, portion evenly, label clearly and store securely away from children and pets.
