Fudgy center and crispy corners! This vegan weed brownies recipe is studded with crispy cookies, rich chocolate chips and chewy marshmallows for a fantastic s’more experience.

Considering a pot brownie was the first-ever recipe I put on the Loud Bowl, I think a sparkling new weed brownie recipe was long overdue.

And there is no better time for a new brownie recipe than in preparation for 04/20/2020, the one in a lifetime stoner event.

How to ace your vegan weed brownies

The only way to ace weed brownies is by using the right recipe, technique, and ingredients. Luckily you already got the recipe covered and I’m here to help with the other 2 elements.

Aquafaba to the rescue.

One of the reasons why this recipe is so fudgy is because it contains a meringue made with aquafaba. A meringue is egg whites beaten until it becomes a whipped foam. In this vegan recipe, we will be using the liquid found in a can of chickpea, also known as aquafaba.

Making a magical vegan meringue

In this recipe, the magical liquid is whipped until it reaches a soft meringue consistency, also known as the ribbon stage. If you were planning on whipping this by hand, I highly recommend you don’t. You might be going 2 or 3 times a week to the gym but I can guarantee your arm doesn’t deserve such a punishment.

You should really get the stand mixer or handheld mixer from the void that is your kitchen cupboards. It will save you from having a sore arm for multiple days.

Start whipping your brown sugar and the aquafaba together on medium and slowly increase the speed of your mixer as the mixture becomes opaque.

I do have to say that this meringue does take a bit longer than regular meringue due to the fact that the sugar is incorporated at the beginning of the process. So do expect to spend some quality time with your mixer, around 10 minutes (maybe even a bit more).

But trust me, all this effort will be rewarded.

Garnished with flair

The crown of s’more topping makes these vegan weed brownies stand out. But before a vegan s’more brownie could happen, some slight changes had to happen to the ingredients list.

Graham crackers are traditionally made with honey, which is not vegan. While vegan graham crackers alternatives do exist, I simply couldn’t find any in the current Corona crisis we are currently facing.

I, therefore, switched it up for tea biscuits, but I do encourage you to try this recipe with the graham cracker alternative if you can get your hands on a box…or two.

You can estimate the potency of your edibles by using my THC calculator.

Vegan marshmallows for vegan brownies

Finding vegan marshmallows can be a nightmare, so this is why I recommend you stocking up on them when you find a brand you like. Personally, I like Dandies but they can be hard to find so I have minions who are keeping an eye open and calling me when they spot a bag of these sweet and chewy delicacies.

Dandies are actually one of the only brands we get here in Canada. But I did hear that lucky US readers can find vegan marshmallows at Trader Joe’s.

Is chocolate chips your thing?

Instructions

• Preheat your oven at 320F and line an 8”x8” pan with parchment paper.

• While the chocolate is cooling, mix together the aquafaba and brown sugar. With a stand mixer or hand-held mixer and large bowl, whip the aquafaba on medium until it becomes opaque and start to thickens. Continue beating on high until the meringue reaches the ribbon stage and becomes glossy.
• In a medium bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients.

• Let the s’more brownie cool down before slicing into 9 squares.
• Enjoy.

Notes

• I like to dose my edibles at 10 mg of THC per portion. Adjust the potency of your edibles by using a mixture of cannabis-infused oil and regular vegetable oil.

 

Info Infusion

Sensitivity to changes in oil: yes, so you should not change the total quantity of oil in this recipe.

Type of oil or infusion:  cannabis-infused vegetable oil

Dosing method: batch

Taste: light

This is my personal perception when made at a potency of around 10 mg of THC per square.

Sober version: replace the canna oil in the recipe with 100% regular vegetable oil.

Always clearly label your edibles, keep them out of reach of children and pets, and don’t eat more than you can handle.
