Introducing Strawberry Cough-Infused Cannabis Overnight Oats—a delightful and nutritious way to start your Independence Day.

Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, diced
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1-2 tsp honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional for added creaminess)
- 1 gram of Strawberry Cough cannabis, decarboxylated
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
Step 1: Decarboxylation
Before you can infuse the oats with cannabis, you need to decarboxylate it. Preheat your oven to 240°F (115°C). Break the cannabis into small pieces and spread it evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even heating. Once done, allow it to cool.
Step 2: Infusing the Coconut Oil
In a small saucepan, melt the coconut oil over low heat. Add the decarboxylated cannabis and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Strain the mixture through a cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer to remove the plant material, leaving you with cannabis-infused coconut oil.
Step 3: Preparing the Overnight Oats
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, Greek yogurt (if using), and a pinch of salt. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Step 4: Adding the Infusion
Gently stir in the cannabis-infused coconut oil, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Fold in the diced strawberries for a burst of fresh, fruity flavor.
Step 5: Refrigerating
Portion the mixture into individual jars or containers. Seal them with lids and refrigerate overnight, allowing the flavors to meld and the oats to absorb the liquid, creating a creamy, satisfying texture.
