Cookie Butter Oatmeal Bars are chewy oat bars filled with a rich and gooey caramel and pockets of cookie butter! These are sweet and delightful packed full of caramel and spices.
Place the condensed milk, golden syrup and butter in a saucepan on a medium heat and allow them to melt together.
Once it has all come together take off the heat and add the vanilla extract.
Allow to cool slightly while you prepare the oat bars.
Oat Bars
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line an 8"x8" baking tin with baking paper.
Place the brown sugar in a bowl and mix in the melted butter and melted cookie butter.
Add in the egg and mix.
Add the flour, oats, coconut, baking powder and cinnamon and mix until all combined.
Press ⅔ of the mixture into the base of the prepared pan.
Top with the caramel and then blob over teaspoonfuls of the cookie butter in little blobs around the caramel. Crumble over the remaining oat mixture on top.
Place in the oven to bake for around 25-30 minutes. The top should be a light golden colour.
Allow to cool completely before slicing. I like to cool mine in the fridge so the caramel slices nicely.
