Cranachan is a simple, yet distinctive Scottish dessert.
With changing availability of ingredients and tastes, Cranachan has evolved over. Yet despite this, Cranachan is still found in a form that many would consider to be distinctively Scottish. A typical example of Cranachan would consist of cream, oats, honey, Scotch Whisky and raspberries.
The preparation of Cranachan consists of a number of simple steps. The hardest of these is probably the first, the preparation of the oats, which need to be toasted. Next cream needs to be whipped and then folded with some honey, Scotch Whisky and raspberries. The assembly of Cranachan is done differently by traditions of the family or region, but letting each guest assemble theirs separately is also popular. Generelly speaking the ordering of ingredients is raspberries in the bottom of the glass, followed by cream and lastly the oats.
