Sweet potatoes are so amazing. They’re sweet, nutritious, filling and are such a vibrant color. We’re going to do some fun and exciting things to traditional sweet potato pie by adding a small amount of cannabis and fresh ginger.
Between the ginger, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg, the earthy taste of cannabis oil is uniquely masked and enhances the flavor of the other spices. And the great thing is, it doesn’t change the pie drastically. You still get that good southern sweet potato pie feel!
