Caramel and Chocolate Oat Bars

Ingredients
  • 100 grams sugar
  • 20 milliliters cold water
  • 60 grams butter (room temperature)
  • 100 milliliters whipping cream (room temperature)
  • A pinch of salt
  • 300 grams oats
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flakes
  • 30 grams walnuts (chopped)
  • Dried fruits (optional, to taste)
Instructions
  1. Prepare the caramel:
      • In a large saucepan, combine 100g sugar and 20ml cold water. Mix well.
      • Place the saucepan on medium to high heat and cook until the mixture changes color to a golden brown. (Avoid high heat to prevent bitterness.)
      • Once it reaches the right color, add 60g butter and stir well to combine.
      • Add 100ml whipping cream and continue mixing until everything is incorporated smoothly.
      • Add a pinch of salt, and allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients:
      • Once the caramel mixture has cooled, transfer it to a large bowl.
      • Add 300g oats, 2 tablespoons coconut flakes, 30g chopped walnuts, and any dried fruits you like. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.
  3. Shape the bars:
      • Line a tray with plastic wrap.
      • Transfer the mixture into the tray and press it down firmly, leveling the surface.
  4. Chill:
      • Cover the tray and refrigerate the mixture for 1 hour to allow the bars to firm up.
