Description

There is no such thing as too much butterscotch! Try this twist on a classic with brown butter sea salt butterscotch bars!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups Oats
  • 1 1/4 cup Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 3/4 cup Butterscotch Chips +1/4 cup for Drizzle
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter, browned and cooled
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar +2 Tbsp for Drizzle
  • 1 Egg
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt for Drizzle
  • 1 Tbsp Milk for Drizzle
  • 1 cup Walnuts, chopped *optional*

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan or skillet, heat over medium heat and brown butter. Allow to cool slightly – or place in fridge until the butter sets, about 20 minutes. Prepare other ingredients while cooling.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13×9 inch baking dish with non stick spray, then line with parchment paper, and spray again with non stick spray to adhere to the bottom of the pan.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  4. In another bowl, beat together the cooled butter and brown sugar, until a creamy paste forms.
  5. Whisk together egg, and vanilla. Pour in the flour/oat mixture and combine.
  6. Add in butterscotch chips, and chopped walnuts.
  7. Pour mixture into the baking dish, press in to evenly distribute through the dish.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with just a few crumbs on it. When done, set on a cooling rack.
  9. For glaze, in a microwave safe bowl or cup, melt together remaining butterscotch chips, brown sugar, and milk. Heat in increments to ensure the butterscotch chips do not scorch. Stir to form a glaze.
  10. Drizzle over the top of the cooling bars. Sprinkle with sea salt.
  11. Cool completely, then slice and serve.
