Scottish Cranachan (Oat, raspberry and cream dessert glass)



Cranachan is an embarrassingly simple dessert, ready in a chinch and extraordinarily delicious. In Scotland you can also find fun variations, like treating some of the ingredients with whiskey for a longer time before using, or adding whiskey cream as a topping, but this is the classic version. 

Since last month I visited Scotland, for the first part of this month I will go into a few Scottish dishes and share with you some glimpses of what's cooking over there. :)

Last year: nothing.
Two years ago: nothing.
Three years ago: nothing.

Ingredients (serves 2):
  • 2-3 tablespoons oats
  • 1 tablespoon single malt whiskey
  • 3 tablespoons sweetened whipped cream
  • 1-2 tablespoons raspberries

Divide rolled oats between serving glasses.


Add whiskey, raspberries and cream.


Repeat with oats and raspberries. Finish with a dollop of whipped cream. The point is to create beautiful layers, visible through the transparent glass.

Serve immediately. It's done, dig in! :)
