- A simple dessert involving oats, cream, raspberries, honey and whisky. Foolproof and can be whipped up easily and even stored in the fridge until you serve it, ta-dah!

You can adapt, change and modify the recipe to your heart's content. You're not baking, you're just throwing stuff together. So throw together what you want. I think some nice milk chocolate shavings would go well in the cream, but this dish blew out my daily fat intake limit in one go.
Enjoy! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

To measure the honey: Press the back of your spoon into the whipped cream. Then fill the depression you made with honey. No wasted honey stuck to the spoon! This is especially useful with larger measures of sticky substances.
Description: “The Most Scottish Dessert Ever”
Me: Does it have oats in it? 😂
This was one of the first things I learned to make when I moved to Scotland from the US. Scotch breath was the first. My neighbour taught me a few Scottish recipes, Clootie Dumplings was another desert, along with Dundee cake and my hubby’s all time favourite, sticky toffee pudding. And in exchange for teaching me Traditional Scottish recipes, I began teaching her some New England recipes. It was so much fun sharing.
The first bbq I was invited to over here, I said I would bring my homemade baked beans. I got funny looks and asked why on Earth I would make homemade baked beans when you could buy them cheaply in a can. Lol my Scottish hubby laughed and said you will see why tomorrow. That was 28 years ago…and every get together, I am always asked to bring my Boston baked beans lol. No matter how many times I share the recipe and tell them how easy it is, it is still requested. It blew their mind when I added cheddar cheese to my apple pie crust lol. When I brought American Strawberry shortcakes everyone was asking for the recipe. Perthshire in Scotland produces the worlds best raspberries and strawberries. When my American family come over, Cranachan is the dessert most often requested, no matter what time f year. I have played around as I am not keen on Scottish whiskey…well whiskey from anywhere really. But I have played around as the recipe is so adaptable and forgiving and I really enjoy it with a bramble whiskey liquor or a Heather whiskey liquor. I am so looking forward to summer and having some lovely cranachan!
I really enjoyed reading your comment. Thank you for sharing. Tell me, what else do they like in Scotland from us North Americans?
If you like sticky toffee pudding you need to try a treacle pudding. For me its the better of the two
Hi from MA! What would you substitute for double cream? I was thinking a mild Greek yogurt maybe?
@@skokokelli You need the cream, perhaps a mix will do but you need the cream. So called "heavy cream" is the same
@@skokokelli heavy whipping cream would be the closest to double cream.
Hoping weather is warming up for you guys there.
Tip: use Jordan's honey crunch cereal for a quick no toast version. Also frozen raspberries work well and Drambuie or Glava liqueur instead of whisky.
Good tips. It's a very adaptable recipe where everything can be substituted with something else and still be delicious.
@@gregislate Joey from friends eating Rachel's botched trifle: custard good, cream good ground beef good, what's not to like? 🤣
Always watch out for the cat. We have exactly the same here, hungry, looking innocent and the stealing the best parts of the menu.
In a pinch I take raspberries with a little scotch mashed together and crumble a home made oat cake in a bowl with a dollop of whipped cream.....mix thoroughly and voila! It's a quick version, but its healthy and incredibly yummy...Cheers!
The pets at the end ☺️
I saw the reflection of the cat on the glass door and thought: "Cat'll be after the cream!" And I wasn't disappointed!
I am going to try this recipe. Thanks for sharing it.
What's wrong with eating oats and berries with a little cream in the morning? Sounds like a healthy breakfast to me!
This looks so simple and so delicious, even at least partially healthy.
I think traditionally it used crowdie- some kind of cream cheese. I’ve made it with crème fraîche and double cream with that in mind. Mix in whisky into cream & sometime raspberry jam if I’m in the mood. Layer in glass with raspberry & honey granola, raspberries & raspberry couli if I’m going crazy. Firming up in the fridge is a good plan!
Scotland's cream and heavy cream is so delicious 😋 I didn't want to leave
3 attempts at buying sweet raspberries this year and 😜ick! Blueberries have been marvelous though.
Growing up we would go to the Gaelic Club held in the Canadian-American club in Massachusetts. At the end of the night, they often had a tea and serve something very similar. It was homemade whipped cream and oats mixed together. I don't know if they toasted them or not. It was my favorite. I'm going to try this way of making it. Your video brought back many fond memories of the music and fellowship I associate with this dish.
Where in MA was this?
Yummy dessert, likable human, adorable pet eating at the end. Great video ❤
Wow. I have never seen cream that thick here in US markets. This looks delicious.
A recipe to use up the oats in my cabinet! It's February at the time I'm writing this and oranges & lemons are very much in season here so I'll probably use those
Since everyone is describing their versions, mine is Greek yogurt, blueberries, maple syrup and sherry. Only the toasted oats mere true to the original.
So glad to see some Scott deserts!
.. suppose for the more health conscious, you could use plain (or vanilla flavoured yogurt) for the main body of the dessert & just top with whiskey infused whipped cream.. just a thought.
Is that really 'healthier'?
This just showed up on my feed. You’re a funny fellow. Subscribed! ♥️🇨🇦
I grow my own berries and can them. Some whole, some pureed and some preserves. The leftover from the puree; I dehydrate .Tastes wonderful sprinkled over cereal or in a salad.
*THAT SOUNDS DELICIOUS!* We don't have any raspberries right now, not even frozen ones, but I'm thinking the frozen wild blueberries in the freezer will work just fine - and I won't even need to strain seeds out of those!
Thanks for sharing!
This is almost, almost like a trifle. I don't like trifle but this sounds delicious. I am going to make it.
Born and raised in Scotland, how have I never heard of this before? Definitely going to make it at the weekend, my husband will love it 🥰
This would be lovely with cranberries.
I want to try this. I will say, I've lived all my life in the northwest USA, our wild blackberries are sweet!
Great recipe!
Magic Gregg. Looks delicious. I'll have a to at making this. Very simple. Thanks.
Midge Schmeltzer DiNardo. I don’t know if you’ll see this but it looks delicious
Interesting I add my whisky to my raspberry mixture. I never thought to add it to the cream. Looks delicious.
Why not both? 🤔
Looks lovely ! Noticed the cat appeared with cream on the menu !!
I'm by the Tamar in Devon, a stone's throw from Cornwall, nearest shops are in Cornwall, postbox down the road is in Cornwall. I like local CLOTTED CREAM! Not for everything though, you'd need double cream! Clotted is Especially delicious with a warm Xmas mince pie, or on a scone! It's rich & flavoursome! Good wishes !
this looks lovely, usually when i say i'm making a scottish dessert its an irn bru mackies float 😂
That does actually sound more Scottish and achievable to be fair!
Hate the all those ü……
Yogurt instead of cream…
I think most liquors or liquers will work for this? The level of acidity of the berries determines how they interplay.
That was really cute💜👏🏽
Literally never heard of it before lol and I’m from Argyll
seriously ?? i'm fae Ayrshire and i have heard of Cranachan
Love cranachan!
Loved it, your pets too.
I want the little whiskey tin.
Hello Greg, thank you for sharing this recipe, it looks delicious 😋 I was wondering if adding broken granola might be an alternative to the oats, it would add more crunch to the cream. I'll have to try 😉 thanks again!
Looks like a yummy dessert. I am wondering how many spoons you have in your apron pocket?
Ah someone noticed. 🥳 I'll be honest with you, I was refilling between takes to give editing me something to giggle about.
Cranachan is also very big in Ireland.
I was taught to make it by an Irish executive chef from Dublin.
Clifford I’ve never heard of it and I’ve lived in 5 different counties in Leinster, including Dublin, in Ireland and my dad is from Donegal and my mum is from Cork!
@@fmcm7715 September 1996, at Ballsbridge Jury's Hotel and Towers, Group Executive Chef, Peter Brady gave us a demonstration in the making of Cranachan, as it was to be included as one of the luncheon menu's for a visiting contingent of chefs participating in the World Cooks' Tour for Hunger.
I remember it well as I was to repeat the menu with my team at all the Jury's Hotels in Eire and Northern Ireland, but not the one in Glasgow, where we did not do any of the desserts.There I remember taking Irish beef across with us, because of the mad cow disease in the UK.
We were also to use Bushmills' in the making as they were one of our sponsors.
@@majormanfredrex you can say Ireland not Eire. We don’t use Eire ourselves only if we’re in school in an Irish language class! How much money did ye raise for the charity and fair play to you and everyone else involved in it.
Was real tasty!
The simplicity of this reminds me a lot of Latvian desserts, except they tend to use dark rye bread rather than oats. :-) I had one like it during a visit in the country and it was delicious, so this looks very tempting!
OAT! :D
These are the weird little parfaits that they sell in fancy grocery stores. It's the whiskey though that makes it undoubtedly Scottish.
Annnd the furgirl steals the show!
How about strawberries or blue or black berries?
Those would work too!
Dessert
There is no Scottish desert. In fact, it's quite a wet country.
Haha good commentary
What type of oats do you use? Steel-Cut?
I assume they'd be called rolled oats if you're in North America. Steel cut wouldn't absorb enough cream in time and would likely still be hard/dense.
Don't use quick cook or minute oats for the exact opposite reason. It would likely turn the cream into a paste if they didn't burn first.
👍
Yay, a kitty.
I guess if you want it a tiny bit more neat / presentable in the cup use icing bags 😅
That looks like the “boy’s” version
Very delicious, nevertheless.
Thanks for sharing! 👏👏👏
Worst part is I have icing bags in the cupboard. Thanks for the tip!
@@gregislate 😅🤣 it’s all good!
А с котиком поделиться?
And what do I put in if I don't EVER touch spirits?
You can just skip the whisky. Totally allowed.
@@gregislate That's good. I know all about whisky, but there is too much alcohol for the taste, and is is never allowed to age properly. Calvados and Armagnac age correctly, and are so much more balanced.
Looks lovely. Though, I'm a bit skeeved out by the cat on the counter where there's food. Our animals are forbidden from the kitchen, especially when I cook.
I have lower standards, still alive and had finished prep work by that point anyway. 😁 But thank you.
No even a dram, Lad! If there's nae oats, it's no Scots! IMO.
WOT! NAE SALT!?
Spurtle
bet it makes a good breakfast, too...
nudge nudge wink wink
No self respecting dog would let a cat upstage him.
Huh all I got was a 3 second ad for aldi's nothing else what a con
This is terrible - my eyes went to his meat & 2 veg inching their way onto the edge of the worktop..... 🤭
you worked a lot, but your plating is bad
I was enjoying this until the animals got on the counter. Filthy. I would never eat anything prepared there.🤢🤢🤢
Gross, what’s with animal crap paws on the counter?
