Not only do they have all the flavor of a freshly baked apple pie, they are a relatively quick-to-make treat that will sooth almost any serious sweet tooth.

Variations:
On the off chance that you’re not a fan of apple pies, this process can be replicated with any other pie filling. For example, cherry, blueberry or peach pie filling would work just as well as apple pie filling. Simply follow the recipe as written above, only using a different choice in filling flavor.
Warnings:
If you feel like this dish may be too strong, or not strong enough, with the designated amount of cannabutter then feel free to adjust to your needs – and substitute with regular butter if you are reducing the amount being used.
However, if you are planning to consume edibles, then you should always keep in mind the safest steps to dosing with cannabis – start low and go slow. If you are smoking or vaping cannabis, wait until it’s started to wear down to consume an edible, and always wait 60-90 minutes before consuming any more cannabis after eating an edible.
