Ingredients
• The Sweetener: 2 cups Allulose or a Monk Fruit/Erythritol blend (Allulose is preferred for the best caramelization).
• The Richness: 1 cup Heavy Cream and 4 tbsp Grass-Fed Butter.
• The “Magic Touch”: 1 tsp Vanilla Extract and a pinch of Sea Salt.
• The Texture: 2 tbsp powdered Beef Gelatin (optional, helps the sugar-free version set firmly).
Preparation Steps
1. Melt and Combine: In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sweetener, heavy cream, and butter.
2. The Slow Simmer: Heat over medium-low, stirring constantly until the sweetener is completely dissolved.
3. The Color Change: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Continue to simmer for about 15–20 minutes, stirring frequently. You are looking for the mixture to turn a deep golden-tan color and reach the “soft ball” stage.
4. The Beat: Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and salt. Use an electric whisk or a wooden spoon to beat the mixture vigorously for 5–8 minutes. This is the most important step! Beating introduces the tiny crystals that give Scottish tablet its famous grainy texture.
5. Set: Pour the thick mixture into a greased glass dish. Smooth the top with a spatula.
6. Score and Cool: While still slightly warm, use a knife to score the surface into squares, just like the ones in your photo. Let it cool at room temperature for at least 4 hours (or overnight) until it is firm and brittle.
