Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Rolled oats
- 250 milliliters Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 150 grams Raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon Whiskey (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 3 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat a dry skillet over medium heat and toast the rolled oats for 3-5 minutes until golden and fragrant, stirring frequently to ensure even toasting. Set aside to cool.
In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip the cream; it should be light and airy.
Gently fold in 1 tablespoon of honey and, if using, the whiskey, to the whipped cream. Mix until just combined.
In a separate bowl, mash half of the raspberries lightly with a fork and sprinkle with the granulated sugar. Reserve the remaining raspberries for layering.
To assemble, start by layering a spoonful of the whipped cream mixture at the bottom of serving glasses or bowls. Add 1-2 teaspoons of the toasted oats, followed by a few whole raspberries and some of the mashed raspberry mixture. Repeat the layers until the ingredients are used up, finishing with a dollop of cream and a sprinkle of toasted oats on top.
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of honey over the top for added sweetness.
Optionally, garnish with a fresh mint leaf on each dessert before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy this comforting, no-bake Scottish treat!
