Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Homemade Clotted Cream.
Step 1
Begin by assembling all your ingredients and preheating your oven to a gentle 175-180°F, or 80-82°C.
Step 2
Pour the heavy cream into a shallow glass or ceramic baking dish, ensuring it reaches a depth of about 1.
Step 3
5 to 2 inches.
Step 4
Carefully place the dish in the preheated oven and let it bake undisturbed for a full 12 hours, allowing the magic to happen.
Step 5
Once the time is up, take the dish out of the oven and let it cool to room temperature.
Step 6
After it has cooled, cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and transfer it to the refrigerator, where it should chill completely for at least 8 hours or overnight.
Step 7
When you're ready to enjoy your creation, gently push aside a corner of the thickened cream to reveal the liquid beneath.
Step 8
Pour this liquid into a separate container, leaving the luscious clotted cream behind.
Step 9
Finally, scoop the thickened cream into a ceramic crock or canning jar, seal it up, and store it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Step 10
Enjoy the rich, creamy delight that awaits!.
