Gooey Apple-Caramel Bars


Ingredients

Scale

Crust + Topping Ingredients:

Apple Filling

  • 3 Sweet-tart apples (I like the rose-hued ones), cored, and sliced (I like to leave the peel on!)
  • 1 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 1 tsp  Cinnamon
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 1/2 tsp Coconut Oil

Caramel Drizzle


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
  2. Line a 9×9-inch pan with parchment.
  3. Mix all crust/topping ingredients in a large bowl and divide into thirds.  Press 2/3rds of mixture into pan.
  4. Meanwhile, combine apple filling ingredients (except coconut oil) in a bowl and combine until apples are evenly coated. Melt coconut oil in a pan over medium heat, then add apple mixture, sautéing for 5-10 minutes, or until sauce thickens.  Take pan off the burner and allow to cool before arranging apples on top, making sure to pour all that delicious caramelly goodness over the apples!
  5. Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes or until apples are starting to turn golden and soften but are not mushy.
  6. Crumble last third of crust mixture on top of apples and bake another 10 minutes or until it turns golden-brown.
  7. Allow to cool before cutting into bars.
  8. To make drizzle, combine all ingredients in a blender and chill until desired firmness level.  Drizzle all over cooled bars and try not to eat them ALL!
