  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, honey, and fresh lemon juice. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
  2. Optional: If desired, add 1-2 full spectrum CBD oil drops to the dressing mixture. Stir well to evenly distribute the CBD oil.
  3. Set the CBD-infused dressing aside while you prepare the Waldorf pudding base.

B. Preparing the Waldorf Pudding Base

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, celery, grapes, chopped walnuts, and raisins or dried cranberries.
  2. Add the 1/2 cup of CBD-infused dressing to the bowl. Toss the ingredients together until well coated in the dressing.

C. Assembling the CBD-Infused Waldorf Pudding

  2. If desired, drizzle additional CBD-infused dressing on top of the pudding for added flavor and presentation.

  3. Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped walnuts or a few fresh grapes for an extra touch of visual appeal.

IV. Tips and Variations

  1. CBD Dosage: If you choose to infuse your Waldorf pudding with CBD, add 1-2 full spectrum CBD oil drops to the dressing mixture. Adjust the dosage according to your preference and follow the dosage instructions provided with your CBD oil.
  2. Fruit Variations: While the classic Waldorf pudding recipe calls for apples, celery, grapes, and walnuts, feel free to experiment with other fruits and nuts. Consider adding diced pears, sliced strawberries, or chopped pecans for a unique twist.
  3. Sweeteners: If you prefer a sweeter pudding, you can add a tablespoon of maple syrup or agave nectar to the CBD-infused dressing. Adjust the sweetness according to your taste preferences.
  4. Additional Flavorings: Enhance the flavor of your CBD-infused Waldorf pudding by adding a dash of cinnamon or a sprinkle of nutmeg to the dressing mixture. These warm spices can complement the fruit and add depth to the overall flavor.
  5. Texture Variations: For a creamier pudding, you can substitute part of the Greek yogurt with whipped cream or coconut cream. This will lend a richer and silkier texture to the dessert.

V. Storage and Reheating

  • Leftover CBD-infused Waldorf pudding can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. However, it is best enjoyed fresh when the flavors and textures are at their peak.
  • To reheat the CBD-infused Waldorf pudding, allow it to come to room temperature, or slightly warm it in the microwave for a few seconds. Do not overheat as it may cause the fruit to become mushy.

VI. Conclusion

CBD-infused Waldorf pudding is a delicious and healthy dessert option that combines the freshness of fruits with the potential wellness benefits of CBD. This comprehensive guide has provided you with step-by-step instructions to create this delightful treat. The combination of CBD-infused dressing and the vibrant fruit and nut mixture makes for a refreshing and satisfying dessert that can be enjoyed year-round.
