Holy crap I made the microwave version while my oven version is taking all day and I am blown away, tastiest thing I've ever eaten. I made a mug biscuit in the microwave for the cream. All I can say is just do it. Just. Do. It.

Years ago I lived in a cottage on a farm in west Cornwall. We had a wood burning Rayburn & a very wide copper pan. We would 3/4 fill it with fresh unpasteurized whole milk from grass fed free range cows. Left on low heat overnight by the morning the top inch would be yellow clotted cream. The rest of the milk still totally useable. The farm is still there & the cottage now a listed building!

As an American I can honestly say that was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever ate. I don’t want butter on a biscuit anymore. I want this.

[raynmaker]

just did this using method one, was easy as heck and came out incredible. i am never buying a $12 jar of imported clotted cream again

[JessicaOliviaLifestyle]

I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH! I nearly was in desperate need for clotted cream and only found the tiny expensive jars that were not nearly the taste as I did in London. I did the stovetop version and it was amazing! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I've never had (official) clotted cream, but I tried your technique this morning. I used vanilla and a shot of whiskey. It is amazing!! The texture is unlike anything I've had before. The flavor profile is subtle and pure heaven! Thank you!!

I'm from Bristol, England and I had this all the time as a kid and still make it myself. My mum was born in 1921 and made this reduced method that she learn from her mum don't know why you'd bake it for 12 entire hours but I supposed it would be the ancient way of doing it when there was no coal or gas cooking!

[MimiYuYu]

I don’t know why this was in my recommended. I’ve never had or heard of clotted cream before. And I’ve never watched any of your videos. But just based on this I’ve decided to subscribe. I never knew I needed clotted cream in my life but now I need to have it. Thank you!

So, so grateful that you posted this video. I live in Hawaii and almost impossible to even buy clotted cream. With 1 quart of Ultra Pasturized Whipping Cream (Great Value, a Walmart Brand) was able to produce 2+ cups of perfect clotted cream. I Microwaved the cream in 2 cups at a time, cut the time to approximately 13 minutes (3 cycles). Worked for me. Thank you so much. Aloha from Hawaii!

I did his method, after pouring into dishes I placed in the countertop oven (toaster oven), to get that brown caramelized crust seen on traditional clouted cream. set at 275 till it got brown and bubbly. Soo good.

Holy crap, this is delicious. Made traditional clottes cream many times, the microwave version can realy stand up to it.

The first time I tried this, I used the stovetop method with butter. But I am using Jersey cream, which likely has a higher butterfat content, and it reduced too far. Turned out solid. I tried again without the butter. Much better result! Thanks for this time-saving recipe.

I have made clotted cream the old way in the oven for 12 hours, etc and was never satisfied with the results. The clotted cream was never thick and fluffy like I'd had when I experienced it on my visits to England. Well no more!! The stovetop method was a dream fulfilled. Easy to do and the results were spectacular. I tried the microwave method first but felt it had an odd taste. If you like clotted cream you have to try this stovetop method. The best thing ever.

I went to England in 1985 and loved it there. I also loved clotted cream with strawberries and scones. I can buy a tiny bottle of it in Canada but it is very expensive. Having farmed and had delicious Jersey cream I thought it would be easy to make but could never find a recipe. So thankyou. I will be making it. 💌🇨🇦🇬🇧

Oh my goodness, your microwave version is amazingly fast and good - who would have thought? I used 80% power - and did it in 3 different dishes. Total time for each batch varied depending on the size of the dish used. I was able to get a beautifully thick clotted cream, as I've always wanted - without hours and hours of work. THANK YOU!

I've always made clotted cream by the overnight oven method, and it's perfectly fine. No faffing about because the oven does all the work. And there's very little wastage, if any, if you use British double cream (very easily available here). However, these methods are definitely worth trying, especially if you need clotted cream in a hurry (although all methods need to allow chilling time). Thanks very much.

Method 1 is AMAZING! Honestly followed this video recipe to the T & my clotted cream came out PERFECT! Thank you
