[edit]

One traditional recipe for cranachan is 3 ounces (85 g) pinhead oatmeal, 12 imperial pint (280 ml) double (or whipping) cream, and 2 tablespoons (35 ml) of whisky. The oatmeal should be toasted in a pan over a high heat then dust should be sifted out. The oatmeal is soaked in whisky overnight and then added to the whipped cream, with a little more whisky added to the mixture. Some raspberries are placed in the bottom of the serving glass before adding the cream mixture. An option is to break up some of the raspberries and gently blend into the mixture. The volume of whisky used may be adjusted to personal taste.

One recipe uses all the raspberries whole[1]; most recipes have you purée half of them to make the fruit layer. Another specifies heather honey[2], whilst another calls for "runny honey"[3]
