CARAMEL APPLE OATMEAL

Steps:

• Spray your crockpot with cooking spray. This is an important step as I find that all overnight oatmeal recipes stick to the sides of the pot. If you have an older model without an insert that removes for cleaning, you may want to skip this and other oatmeal recipes, or slow cook during the day so you're available for intermittent stirring.
• Dump the apples, barley, oatmeal and cider in the crockpot, and stir well. Place the caramels on top. This can be done earlier in the evening, but wait until you go to bed to turn the crockpot on LOW.
• When you wake up, empty the yogurt into the slow cooker and stir. Let it warm through, stir again, and then spoon into serving bowls. Turn off the crockpot.
• Spoon the creamy apple goodness into serving bowls, discarding any parts that stuck to the sides of the pot. Drizzle with caramel syrup and ENJOY!

CARAMEL APPLE OATMEAL

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add apple and 1/4 cup brown sugar; cook and stir until browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small serving bowl.
• Melt remaining butter in a small pot over medium heat. Add remaining brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Add 2 cups heavy cream; bring to a simmer. Add oats, flax seeds, and cinnamon; mix and stir until oats are full cooked and creamy, about 2 minutes, adding a touch more heavy cream if needed.
• Serve in a bowl topped with caramel apple, raisins, and almonds. Add a spoonful of whipped topping to add additional creaminess.

CARAMEL APPLE OATMEAL BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and grease and line an 8x8 inch square pan.
• Place chopped apples into a medium sized bowl. Place cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and flour into a small bowl and mix together briefly.
• Add the spice mix to the apples and toss until the apples are covered, leave to one side.
• Make the oat mix: Place butter, sugars, oats and vanilla into a large bowl and rub together until you have a coarse breadcrumb texture - if you have some larger lumps this is fine.
• Tip 2/3 of the oat mixture into your lined tin and press into the tin firmly until level.
• Sprinkle the apples on top of the oat layer and then add the remaining 1/3 mix of oats on top.
• Press the oat mixture until level, having some apples poking through is perfect.
• Place in the oven for 30-40 minutes until lightly golden, slightly cracked and the apples are tender when skewered.
• Leave to cool in the tin completely before slicing into 9-12 bars.
• Place the caramel and milk into a medium bowl and whisk until combined and smooth.
• Drizzle or spoon glaze onto cooled bars.
• Oatmeal bars will keep in an airtight container, at room temperature for 3 days (apple may go a little soft).
