Ingredients
For the Soaked Oats
- 1/3 cup steel cut oats
- 1/3 cup whiskey Scotch
For the Whipped Topping
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 Tbsp whiskey Scotch
For the Raspberries
- 2 cups raspberries fresh
- 2 tsp granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 1 Tbsp whiskey Scotch
For Assembly
- 1/4 cup steel cut oats
Instructions
- In a small skillet pan, toast ⅓ cup of the oats until they are slightly brown but not burned.
- In a small bowl, combine the ⅓ cup toasted oats and ⅓ cup Scotch whiskey, and mix together. Set in the fridge for at least 1 hour to soak.
- Next, toast the remaining ¼ cup of oats until they are slightly browned, and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, add the raspberries, and using a fork, crush them. Be sure not to over mash.
- Add the sugar, honey, and Scotch whisky to the raspberries, mix well, and set aside.
- Then, in a different bowl, using a handheld mixer, whip the heavy cream until it starts to thicken.
- Then add the honey and Scotch whiskey, and whip until stiff peaks form. Fold in the whiskey-soaked oats into the whipped cream.
- Time to assemble the Cranachan. To start, fill the bottom of your glass with a layer of raspberries to coat the bottom. Next, add the whipped topping and sprinkle a generous amount of the toasted oats. Repeat these steps and top the glass with fresh raspberries.
- Finally, serve and enjoy!
Notes
- For Cranachan, it's best to store the components separately in the refrigerator. The whipped cream and whiskey-soaked oats can be kept for up to 2 days, while the fresh raspberries should be used within a day.
- With the whiskey added, and considering its lower freezing temperature, I do not recommend freezing this recipe.
