Caramel Apple Oatmeal Bars
I made a huge mistake when I made Caramel Apple Oatmeal bars, I’m talking HUGE…I shared them…
Gooey Caramel and Apple Oatmeal bars are the perfect fall treat.
Â
Yup, they are that good.
I’m telling you, make these in the middle of the night and then hide in your pantry with just a fork and the pan,
andl if you really want to do it right, you might sneak in a pint of vanilla ice cream too.
The best part is these Caramel Apple Oatmeal Bars are soooo easy to make.
How to make Caramel Apple Oatmeal Bars
I’m telling you this pan will disappear in record time, my dad was just at my door a few minutes ago asking if I had any left!

Another favorite Caramel Apple Treat is this delicious Caramel Apple Cake.
Hi, just wondering if you use regular oats or the quick oats?? Thanks!
It’s been a while since I made this but I think I used the old fashioned kind!
Hi just wondering about the flour is it all purpose or self raising, at a guess its all purpose cause of the baking soda but just checking? We have nut allergies here so thinking of taking out nuts and using cranberries or sultanas
Its just good ole all purpose flour :)
I was lucky enough to Be on the sharing end of these bars, they are amazing!! Seriously so good Kel! Your dad says he wants a pan of these for his birthday!!
Sounds good, I’ll plan on it :) thanks mom!
I also have a question about the caramel sauce! The only kind of caramel sauce I can think of is the stuff you would put on ice cream, like Smuckers. Can you please tell me what brand & amount you used? Thanks, these sound DELISH!
It was a 12 oz jar of Smuckers! you can make your own caramel sauce too! I just had a jar leftover from a make your own sundae bar :)
Can I ask what the actual amount if caramel sauce is?
It was a 12 oz jar, sorry about that, I’ll have to edit the recipe to include that – thanks!
That certainly does look yummy! I’ll have to wait until we go visit our kids and grandkids because I WOULD gobble it all up and my metabolism isn’t what it used to be. You know, when you reach a (ahem) certain age you can’t enjoy as many goodies. Thank you for the recipe — it is a definite on my list.
Ha, yeah it’s a good thing my kids ate half the pan :)
Thank you for the yummy recipe, I will pass it on to hubby as he is the cook in the house now. GOD bless
