A delightful dessert that combines gooey caramel with a crumbly oat crust, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.25 cups butter (melted)
  • 1.5 cups quick oats
  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cups brown sugar
  • 0.25 cups butter (melted for caramel)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (for caramel)
  • 0.25 cups milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons flour (for caramel)

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter by heating it in a microwave-safe container for approximately 1 to 2 minutes.
  2. Mix the liquefied butter with the oats, flour, and 1.5 cups brown sugar until the texture is both sticky and crumbly.
  3. Prepare a 9×13 inch baking pan by greasing it and firmly pressing two-thirds of your oat mixture into the bottom.
  4. Bake the base for 10 minutes in an oven preheated to 325°F (163°C), then let it rest briefly.
  5. Make the caramel by melting the remaining butter and whisking in the 1 cup brown sugar until glossy.
  6. Whisk in the milk, vanilla, and the 2 tablespoons flour, stirring continuously for a velvety caramel consistency.
  7. Simmer the caramel to a light boil for 3 minutes while stirring.
  8. Pour the hot caramel filling evenly over the pre-baked crust.
  9. Crumble the leftover oat mixture over the caramel layer.
  10. Bake again at 300°F (149°C) for 20 more minutes.
  11. Cool entirely before slicing into bars.

Notes

These bars can be paired with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, and can be easily stored for several days or frozen for longer storage.
