Delicious Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie recipe from our chef Laurie Wolfe

Hello Backers!

Rumor has it there’s a little holiday coming up called Thanksgiving... so I got in touch with one of our celebrity chefs, Laurie Wolfe, and asked if she could whip something up for you! I was worried she’d be too busy sunbathing and reflecting on the success of Herb: Mastering the Art of Cooking with Cannabis, but no, she was itching to get back into the kitchen for you guys!

Together with her partner Bruce (who created the stunning images for the book), she came up with this delicious pumpkin pie recipe: Laurie Wolfe’s "Special" Pumpkin Pie

If this pie is meant to be shared with non cannabis users, why not infuse the sour cream sauce? That way only the ones who care to indulge can do so, with a drizzle to a dollop of this creamy canna-bliss. 

Happy Thanksgiving, and let’s get some peace on earth going too.

  2. Roll out dough on a floured counter. Don’t over work it. Use as directed in pie recipe. You can freeze the other half for up to 3 months. 

Sour cream sauce** 

If you want to infuse the sauce, add the 3 tablespoons of melted and cooled canna-butter to the sour cream. Increase all the spices by ½ teaspoon.
