Prepare the spinach by squeezing out excess water through a clean tea towel or cheesecloth until very dry. Preheat oven to 190°C and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
Mix the ricotta, crumbled feta, minced garlic, fresh herbs, nutmeg, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the well-drained spinach and melted cannabutter, stirring until evenly combined.
Beat one egg lightly and fold through the filling mixture until just combined. This helps bind everything together during baking.
Roll out each pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface into a 30x40cm rectangle. Cut each sheet into 6 equal strips lengthwise (about 5cm wide).
Fill each pastry strip with 2-3 tablespoons of filling along one long edge, leaving a 1cm border. Roll tightly from the filled edge to create neat cylinders. Digital Kitchen Scale (0.01g) makes this step much easier for consistent results.
Arrange rolls seam-side down on prepared baking trays, spacing them 3cm apart. Brush tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and puffed. Check with Herb Guard UV Glass Stash Jar (500ml) that your oven maintains 190°C for even cooking.
Drain Spinach Thoroughly
Squeeze frozen spinach until bone dry – excess moisture makes soggy pastry. Use a clean tea towel and really wring it out.
Try Half-Strength First
New to edibles? Use 7.5g cannabutter + 7.5g regular butter for milder 3.5mg rolls that are perfect for beginners.
Make-Ahead Friendly
Assemble rolls completely and freeze unbaked for up to 3 months. Bake straight from frozen, adding 5-10 minutes to cooking time.
Temperature Matters
Keep pastry cold while working – warm pastry becomes sticky and hard to handle. Pop back in the fridge if needed.
Label Everything
Always label containers with contents, date made, and dosage per piece. Essential for household safety.
Flavour Variations
Try adding sun-dried tomatoes, pine nuts, or different herbs like mint or basil to create your own signature version.
| Method | Duration | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Room temperature | 2 days | Airtight container, consume quickly |
| Refrigerated | 5 days | Best for freshness, reheat before serving |
| Frozen | 3 months | Wrap individually, thaw overnight |

Absolutely! Mix 7.5g cannabutter with 7.5g regular melted butter for milder rolls with approximately 3.5mg THC each. This is perfect for beginners or those who prefer lower doses.
Cannabis edibles typically take 30-120 minutes to take effect, with peak effects around 2-3 hours. Always wait at least 90 minutes before considering a second serving, as the onset can be delayed.
If you’re making your own cannabutter, yes – decarboxylation is essential to activate the THC. Heat your ground cannabis at 115°C for 25-30 minutes before infusing into butter.
Store in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze individually wrapped for up to 3 months. Always label with contents, date, and dosage per piece for safety.
Stay calm, stay hydrated, and find a comfortable place to rest. The effects will pass – usually within 4-8 hours. Call the Poisons Information Centre (13 11 26) if you’re concerned, or emergency services if experiencing severe symptoms.
Yes, you can replace the cannabutter with the same amount of cannabis coconut oil. The texture will be slightly different but equally delicious. Use the same dosage calculations.
