How to Make Cannabutter Pancakes
How about a recipe for delicious and potent infused cannabutter pancakes to start your morning? Pancakes are a breakfast favorite, and you can easily adapt this recipe to make it gluten-free, vegan, or sugar-free. Try adding ground flaxseed, chopped pecans, blueberries, or whatever you like!
Cannabutter is what sets this pancake recipe apart from the norm. To make your cannabutter, choose a cannabis strain with terpenes that match the flavor you’re going for, and then the butter will bring that character into the pancakes.
What Makes Cannabutter Pancakes Different?
Cannabis-infused butter does double duty as the fat in the batter and as the carrier for the cannabis, which means the flavor of your strain comes through in every bite. Citrus-forward terpenes pair beautifully with lemon zest or blueberries. Earthier strains lean into maple, brown butter, or pecan flavors.
Choose Your Terpene Profile
If you want to dial in the experience, the strain you choose matters more than the indica or sativa label. Look at the terpene profile and pick one that fits the flavor you’re after.
How Do I Prepare Infused Butter?
If you don’t have a LĒVO Infusion machine yet, you can make your cannabutter on the stovetop. Our full guide, “How to Make Cannabutter Fast,” walks you through decarbing your flower, infusing it into butter, and storing it for later use. Do you eat vegan?

If you have a LĒVO II, the infusion machine handles both the decarb and infusion processes. Load your flower into the Power Pod, set it, and walk away.
