Ingredients Needed
For the Hazelnut & Oat Topping:
- 25g (1oz) butter
- 2 tbsp honey
- 100g (4oz) large porridge oats
- 50g (2oz) demerara sugar
- 50g (2oz) hazelnuts, roughly chopped
- 40g (1½oz) plain flour
For the Lemon Mousse:
- 200g (7oz) full-fat crème fraîche
- 200g (7oz) Greek yoghurt
- 3 tbsp luxury lemon curd
- Juice of ½ lemon
- 200g (7oz) fresh blueberries
How To Make Lemon Mousse
- Prepare the Glasses and Oven: You will need 6–8 small glasses and a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/Gas 4.
- Make the Topping: Melt the butter and honey in a saucepan. Add the porridge oats, demerara sugar, hazelnuts, and plain flour, mixing well. Spread the mixture out on the baking sheet. Bake for about 15–20 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and leave to cool on the tray until cold and crunchy.
- Prepare the Lemon Mousse: In a bowl, mix the crème fraîche, Greek yoghurt, lemon curd, and lemon juice until well combined.
- Assemble the Dessert: Divide the blueberries between the glasses and press them down firmly. Top with the lemon mousse mixture and sprinkle with the oat topping.
Recipe Tips
- Chill the Mousse: After mixing the mousse, refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving to help it set properly.
- Watch the Topping: Keep an eye on the topping while it bakes to prevent it from burning; it should be golden brown.
- Layer Carefully: When adding blueberries to the glasses, press them down gently to create a nice layer without breaking them.
- Customize the Topping: Feel free to swap hazelnuts for other nuts like almonds or walnuts for a different taste and texture.
