Cannabis Infused Cheesy Garlic Bread — 5 Easy Steps

This cannabis infused cheesy garlic bread is the ultimate savoury edible — garlicky, cheesy, buttery, and loaded with THC. Made with hash infused butter spread over ciabatta bread and baked until golden, this edible pairs perfectly with dinner or works as a standalone elevated snack. Whether you use hash infused butter, regular cannabutter, or concentrate-based butter, this recipe is incredibly simple and satisfying.

Ingredients for Cannabis Infused Cheesy Garlic Bread

• 1 tablespoon infused butter (hash or cannabutter) (or cannabutter — about 40–60mg THC depending on potency)
• Additional regular unsalted butter
• 1 ciabatta loaf or garlic bread base (halved lengthwise)
• 3–4 fresh garlic cloves (pressed)
• Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
• Mixed cheese — cheddar, parmesan, or mozzarella blend
• Dried oregano and fresh-cracked pepper
• Dried parsley
• Onion powder and cayenne powder (optional)

Dosing tip: Fordee used 1 tablespoon of hash infused butter on his half of the bread, estimating 40–50mg THC. Start with less if you’re new to infused garlic bread dosing.

5 Steps to Make Cannabis Infused Cheesy Garlic Bread

Step 1: Prepare Your Infused Butter Mix

Lightly melt your hash infused butter — just 10 seconds in the microwave is enough to soften it without degrading the THC. Combine 1 tablespoon of hash infused butter with enough regular butter to spread across your half of the bread. Stir in pressed fresh garlic cloves (3–4 is great), a pinch of cayenne, onion powder, salt, and pepper. This becomes your herb-spiced infused butter spread.

Step 2: Prep the Bread

Slice your ciabatta loaf lengthwise to create two open halves. If you’re making one side infused and one side regular (smart move if you’re cooking for a non-consuming partner), cut all the way through to separate the two halves completely. This cheesy garlic bread recipe works with any thick bread — sourdough, baguette, or ciabatta all work great.

Step 3: Spread the Infused Butter

Spread your infused herb butter mixture generously over the cut face of the bread. Use a knife to distribute it evenly across the surface. Add dried oregano and parsley over the top — fresh parsley is even better if you have it. Keep track of which half is infused!

Step 4: Load on the Cheese

Layer on your shredded mozzarella cheese first, then add a mixed cheese blend on top — mozzarella, cheddar, and parmesan make a great trio for any infused bread. Finish with fresh-cracked pepper and a sprinkle of dried parsley. Don’t be shy with the cheese — it’s the key to a great cheesy garlic bread recipe.

Step 5: Bake and Serve

Bake at 200°C (400°F). After about 5–7 minutes, cover loosely with aluminum foil to prevent the cheese from browning too quickly. Bake for another 5–7 minutes uncovered. Total time: about 12 minutes. Let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing — the cheese needs a moment to settle. Serve immediately and enjoy your infused creation!

Dosing Tips for Infused Garlic Bread

Infused garlic bread dosing is tricky when you don’t know the exact potency of your butter. Here’s what Fordee recommends:

• Start with ½ tablespoon of infused butter if you’re new to edibles
• 1 tablespoon of a moderately strong infusion = approximately 40–60mg THC
• Wait 90 minutes before having a second piece — edibles take time to kick in
• Half-and-half trick: Make one half of the bread infused, one half regular — great for sharing with non-consuming guests
