If you haven’t had the chance to watch the award-winning, Canadian TV series you may want to reserve the couch for the next few weeks! Today, we’re taking inspiration from the show and creating Schitt’s Creek Recipes With Weed!
Without wrecking it for those who haven’t seen it, there is one scene that had me doubling over in laughter! It has to do with cooking, so this blog is very appropriate.
We promise you won’t have to ‘fold in the cheese’ for our tasty cannabis enchiladas recipe below!
Moira, played by actress Catherine O’Hara, is far from domesticated – to say the least.
Coming from a ton of money, she is totally out of her element when it comes to cooking or being a Mother for that fact.
She decides, however, that she needs to create her aunt’s famous enchiladas recipe for a family dinner to restore her role as a good Mother, and at the same time commissions David, her son, to help.
David Rose, played by actor Dan Levy, has some mad skills, but absolutely NONE in the kitchen!
The two of them together are basically a hot mess and who knows if the family dinner turned out or not, but what we do know how to make is weed-infused enchiladas that work!
Cannabis Enchiladas
A delicious take on Enchiladas with tortillas, cheese and enchilada sauce.
As the series continues on, a re-branding and refreshing of the Budd Motel are in serious order.
Johnny, played by actor Eugene Levy decides that they need to offer something ‘more’.
His decision to source and offer cinnamon buns doesn’t exactly turn out the way he thought they would, but we bet if he offered cinnamon buns with weed, he’d have bookings at the motel for a year in advance!

Instructions
Using warm Cannabis Milk, and add it to your mixing bowl. Using your electric mixer slowly sprinkle yeast on top. You’ll know your yeast has activated if it begins to foam after a few minutes. If it hasn’t, then start over; your cannabis milk was either too hot or too cold.
Once you see foam, add in sugar, egg, egg yolk and cannabis butter. Mix,mix,mix! Next, stir in flour and salt with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form.
Use your dough hook or hands. If using your electric mixer, knead the dough on medium speed for about 8 minutes. Alternatively, use your hands to knead the dough for 8-10 minutes on a well-floured surface. The dough should feel slightly sticky and form a nice ball. Next step!
Transfer dough to your bowl, ( some bakers use a little oil here, spread it all over the bowl, an dplacedough inside. Your call, but it helps. Then, cover with plastic wrap and a warm towel. Allow dough to rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
After dough has doubled in size, transfer the dough to a well-floured surface and roll out into a 14×9 inch rectangle. Spread your Cannabis butter over dough, evenly, leaving a ¼ inch at the far side of the dough. ( the side furthest away from you)
Cinnamon Filling
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. Use your hands to sprinkle mixture over the buttered dough evenly. It will stick perfectly!
Roll up your dough tightly, (for beginners: like you're rolling up a bath towel) starting from the 9 inch side. Be sure to seal the edges of the dough.
Cut into 1 inch sections with a serrated knife. You should get about 9 large pieces.
Place cinnamon rolls in a parchment paper-lined 9×9 inch baking pan or round 9 inch cake pan. Cover with plastic wrap and a warm towel and let rise again for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove plastic wrap and towel and bake cinnamon rolls for 20-25 minutes or until just slightly golden brown on the edges. It sounds weird, but you want to underbake them a little so they stay soft in the middle. Let them cool for 5-7 minutes before frosting. Seriously! You have to wait before you frost.
Frosting (do this while rolls are baking in oven)
Using your electric mixer, combine cream cheese, cannabis butter, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat it until it's smooth and fluffy. Spread over top of your baked cinnamon rolls (after waiting the horrible 5-7 minutes to let them cool down!)
Decarboxylate your weed by spreading your cannabis evenly on an oven tray And coat with aluminum foil.
Place in the oven on 240F/115C for 25 till 45 minutes, and then let it cool.
Grind your dry cannabis or chop it till fine.
Place the cannabis in a strong mason jar, add butter and (1 tsp of sunflower lecithin)(optional)
Place your closed jar in cold water and let it come to a boil, Boil for 2 to 3 hours.
Strain your butter through a cheesecloth.
Cool down
Now you can use the Cannabis Butter (Cannabutter)

Notes
If using a mason jar, be sure to start with cold water. Furthermore, it is imperative to let the water cool gradually so that your glass will not shatter.The video guide might be slightly different than the blog recipe. The blog recipe is the most updated and accurate.
In one of my favorite episodes, Stevie Budd and David steal a stash of weed from a guest at the motel’s room and smoke it.
I love this because not only was it hilarious, but it proves that Schitt’s Creek is a weed-positive TV series all-in-all. It’s Canadian, after all so that would only make sense.
If you haven’t watched it yet – I highly suggest you start and make some of the Schitt’s Creek-inspired recipes here!
And for the fans who have seen it – maybe it’s time to watch it again?! It is definitely worth it.

As always, happy canna-cooking!
