Ingredients
150g butter, softened
50g brown sugar
3 large free-range eggs
100ml Scottish honey
50ml whisky
250g self-raising flour
50g Scottish oats
250g frozen raspberries
100g granola
Method
Although cranachan is more suited to the summer, this cake uses frozen berries, which are easily found in the colder months.
- Line a 20cm cake-tin base with baking paper. Preheat an oven to 180°C/gas 4.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar till fluffy, then beat in the eggs, honey and whisky. (Don’t worry if it curdles – just add a little flour.)
- In another bowl, sieve the flour, then mix in the oats. Fold the flour mix into the butter mixture, then spoon half the mix into the baking tin. Top with berries, then the remaining cake mixture. Sprinkle over the granola, and bake for 20 minutes.
- Lower the oven to 170°C/gas 3, and bake for a further 40 to 50 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. If the granola starts to catch, cover with foil. Allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
