Description

Clotted cream is a popular British condiment that is used to accompany scones, jam, and tea. It is a thick and creamy spread that has a slightly sweet and nutty flavor. Traditionally, it is made by heating unpasteurized cream until a layer of clotted cream forms on the surface. However, this recipe offers a quick and easy alternative that can be made with just a few ingredients.

Prep time

5 minutes

Cook Time

2 hours

Ingredient

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional)

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Baking dish
  • Cheesecloth
  • Strainer

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C.
  2. Pour the heavy cream into the mixing bowl and add the sour cream. Mix well until fully combined.
  3. Pour the mixture into the baking dish and spread it out evenly.
  4. Bake for 2 hours or until the cream has developed a thick, yellowish layer on top.
  5. Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 30 minutes.
  6. Cover the dish with cheesecloth and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or overnight. The cream will continue to thicken as it cools.
  7. Once the cream has cooled and thickened, remove it from the refrigerator and remove the cheesecloth.
  8. Use a strainer to separate the clotted cream from the liquid that has formed at the bottom of the dish.
  9. If desired, stir in powdered sugar to taste.
  10. Transfer the clotted cream to a jar or container and store it in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Notes

This recipe makes approximately 1 cup of clotted cream. The longer you leave the cream in the refrigerator, the thicker it will become. Make sure to use heavy cream that has a fat content of at least 35% for best results.
