Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'best' (most suitable/highest quality) modifies 'practice' (a customary procedure), so a learner who knows both words can infer it refers to the most effective or recommended procedure. This adjective+noun pattern is common cross-linguistically and is a predictable, non-idiomatic collocation, making it accessible to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Best practice may come from groups of doctors and engineers who shared the most successful ways to do a job; here best means 'most effective' and practice means 'a way of doing work'. That's why today best practice means 'a method accepted as superior'.
