Sticky Oat Caramel Slice - Recipe by Barker’s of New Zealand.

Ingredients

1/2 cup brown sugar
200g room temperature butter
150g melted butter
1 egg
1 1/2 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 bottle Barker's Butterscotch Caramel Sauce
1/2 cup golden syrup
1 cup dessicated coconut
1 cup rolled oats

Method

Preheat oven to 175 C. Prepare a slice pan with baking paper.

Beat together brown sugar and room temperature butter until creamy. Add egg and mix well.

Sift in flour and baking powder. Combine well into a sticky dough.

Press mixture into the slice pan and bake for 15 minutes until golden. Remove from oven.

While the base cools slightly, melt the 150g butter in a heat-proof bowl and stir in golden syrup until well combined. Add coconut and rolled oats.

Pour butterscotch caramel sauce over the base. Sprinkle crumble on top and bake for 25 minutes until golden.

Chill slice for a few hours before you cut into squares.

Tip:

When it comes out of the oven, don’t panic. The top will appear very soft and liquidy, but it will solidify and become a sticky caramel once cooled.
