How to make cannabis-infused coconut oil

Cannabis-infused coconut oil is a versatile and easy-to-make cannabis-infused edible that can be used in a variety of preparations. Not only can it be used as a cooking oil, but it can also be used as a topical ointment or even as a lip balm. Making cannabis-infused coconut oil is a relatively simple process, and it only requires a few ingredients and some time to make.

The first step in making cannabis-infused coconut oil is to decarboxylate your cannabis. Decarboxylation is a process that activates the THC in the cannabis, allowing it to be more readily absorbed by the body in edibles. To decarboxylate your cannabis, preheat your oven to 245°F, and spread the cannabis out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the cannabis for 30-40 minutes, stirring it occasionally to ensure even heating.

Once your cannabis is decarboxylated, its time to make the cannabis-infused coconut oil. Start by combining 1 cup of coconut oil, 1 cup of decarboxylated cannabis, and 1 teaspoon of sunflower lecithin in a slow cooker. Set the slow cooker to low and let the mixture cook for 4-6 hours, stirring it occasionally.

After 4-6 hours, the mixture should be thick and fragrant. Strain the mixture through a cheesecloth and discard the solids. Transfer the strained oil to a container and let it cool before using.
