Recipe Essentials

  • Prep Time: 15 minutes

  • Cook Time: 60–70 minutes

  • Yields: 12–15 servings

  • Skill Level: Advanced

Ingredients

The Cake:

  • 1 1/3 cups Mashed bananas

  • 2 1/2 tbsp Lemon juice, divided

  • 1 1/2 cups CannaMilk (for maximum potency) (cannabis milk)

  • 3 cups Flour

  • 1/2 tbsp Baking soda

  • 1/4 tsp Salt

  • 2/3 cup Cannabutter, softened (cannabis butter)

  • 1 cup White sugar

  • 1/2 cup Brown sugar

  • 3 Large eggs, room temperature

  • 2 tbsp Vanilla extract

  • 2 tbsp Honey

  • 1 tbsp Cinnamon

Lemon Ginger Cream Cheese Icing:

  • 8 oz Cream cheese, room temperature

  • 1/3 cup Cannabutter, softened (cannabis butter)

  • 3 cups Powdered sugar

  • 1 tsp Ginger, ground

  • 1 tbsp Honey

  • 1 tsp Lemon juice

  • 1 1/2 tsp Lemon zest

Step-by-Step Directions

  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 340°F (170°C) and grease a 9x13 inch pan.

  2. Activate: Mix the CannaMilk with 1 1/2 tablespoons of lemon juice and set aside. Add the remaining tablespoon of lemon juice to the mashed bananas and set aside.

  3. Cream: Combine the cannabutter, brown sugar, and white sugar. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla, honey, and cinnamon.

  4. Combine: In a separate large bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients and the CannaMilk mixture to the wet base simultaneously. Stoner Strategies Tip: Do not overmix, as this will lead to a dense, chewy texture.

  5. Fold & Bake: Fold in the mashed bananas. Pour into the pan, reduce the oven to 300°F (150°C), and bake for 60–70 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

  6. Icing: Blend the cannabutter and cream cheese until fluffy. Add the ginger, honey, vanilla, lemon zest, and juice. Gradually add powdered sugar until smooth. Spread over the cooled cake.

Pro-Tips for Success

  • Dosing Advice: This is a potent edibles recipe. We strongly suggest starting with a small test dose to determine your personal comfort level before consuming more.

  • The Stoner Strategies Secret: The lemon-milk mixture acts as a shortcut for buttermilk, providing acidity that makes the cake incredibly tender. Do not substitute this with plain milk; if you need an alternative, use actual store-bought buttermilk.

  • Texture Check: Remember that over-mixing is the enemy of a light cake. Stir just until the flour disappears to ensure your cannabis edibles remain perfectly fluffy.
