Method

Preheat the oven to gas 3, 160 ̊C, fan 140 ̊C. Grease and line a 20cm loose-bottomed round tin. Blitz the oatcakes in a food processor, or bash with a rolling pin to make fine crumbs. Stir in the melted butter, then spoon into the prepared tin and press down firmly.
Beat together the soft cheese, ricotta and Cheddar in a large bowl until combined. Fold in the blue cheese and eggs, then spoon into the tin. Bake for 1 hr-1 hr 10 mins until almost fully set. Leave to cool completely. Transfer to the fridge for 1 hr before decorating with the grapes and thyme sprigs, if you like, to serve. Will keep for up to 5 days in the fridge.
