The 5 Best Fall Edible Recipes

By Danyal Swan September 13, 2024
5 Best Edible Recipes for Fall

It's pumpkin spice season. That means cozy sweaters, apple cider, pumpkin patch visits, and fall edible recipes. There's just something about fall that screams baking, and a few of these edible recipes have that itch covered.

We love a good homemade edible. They allow you to craft infused treats based on your flavor cravings, and even allow you to customize the dosing—a particular benefit for anyone who wants a microdose or macrodose.

Use our guide for cannabutter or canna oil to create your perfect carrier and remember to craft your infused honey, oil, or butter with the desired dose for the recipe. If your infusion is too strong to use the full recommended measurement, use half of your infused ingredient and half non-infused. And don't forget to clearly label your cannabis edibles as infused for your eating only in medical states, or with dose size in recreational!

Now get your mixing bowls ready and dive into the 5 best edible recipes for fall.
