CARAMEL CRUMB BARS

Steps:

• Position a rack on the lowest level of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees. Line the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, then use a little butter to lightly grease the paper.
• For the dough: Combine the 16 tablespoons of butter, the sugar and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer or hand-held electric mixer. Beat on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes, until the mixture is soft and light. Add the vanilla extract and mix to incorporate.
• Reduce the speed to low, then gradually add 2 1/4 cups of the flour and beat until well incorporated to form a smooth dough. Use a spatula to scrape down the bowl and paddle.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer; transfer three-quarters of the dough into the prepared pan. Use the palm of your hand to press the dough down lightly and evenly. Chill the dough-lined pan while you make the topping: Work the remaining 1/4 cup flour into the remaining dough with your fingertips so that it forms small crumbs. Set aside at room temperature.
• For the filling: Combine the butter, corn syrup, brown sugar and condensed milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Allow the mixture to boil gently, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, until the mixture starts to thicken and darken slightly. Pour into a stainless-steel bowl to cool for 5 minutes.
• To assemble: Pour the cooled filling on top of the chilled dough, then scatter the crumb mixture evenly over the top. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the filling bubbles gently and is a deep caramel color and the dough and crumb topping are baked through.
• Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 to 20 minutes, until lukewarm. Use the parchment paper to lift the slab of baked dough out of the pan and onto a cutting board before it has cooled completely. Cut the slab into roughly 2-inch squares.

CARAMEL APPLE CRUMBLE BARS

Steps:

• (see recipe below). Set aside to cool.
• to 350℉. Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving about an inch overhang on two sides. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, sugars, baking soda, and spices until well-combined.
• Cut the butter into cubes, then use a pastry blender to cut the butter into the dry ingredients. Once it's mostly combined, switch to using your fingers and knead until completely incorporated. You should form a shaggy, crumbly dough, that easily sticks together when pinched. This may take a few minutes.
• Using a mandolin, or a very sharp knife, (carefully) cut the apples into slices, as thin as you can manage.
• Scoop about two thirds of the crumble dough into the baking pan, and press into an even layer along the bottom. Layer the apples across the bottom crust.
• Drizzle the (room-temperature) caramel sauce across the apples, adjusting the amount to taste. Top with the remaining crumble mixture, from edge to edge. Sprinkle with the chopped walnuts, if using. Press the crumb topping down gently.
• for 35-45 minutes, until the crumble topping is golden brown and has puffed up a bit. The caramel may be starting to bubble up through the crumbs. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before cutting into bars. Enjoy!!
• in a medium heavy-bottomed pot (preferably with high sides) over medium heat, stirring constantly. The sugar will begin to form clumps, then melt into a deep amber-colored liquid as you stir. Be careful not to let the sugar burn.
• as soon as the sugar is completely melted, and whisk until smooth. Remove from the heat and slowly stir in the cream. The mixture will foam and bubble up. Keep whisking until the caramel is smooth. Stir in the vanilla. Season with salt, to taste.
• for a few minutes in the pan, then transfer to a heat-proof jar and let cool to room-temperature. Will keep for up to two weeks, stored in an air-tight jar in the refrigerator. Warm before serving.

CARAMEL APPLE CRUMB BARS RECIPE

Steps:

• Make the caramel : Assemble all the ingredients you will need for the caramel and place close to the saucepan you will be using. Place sugar in a large heavy sauce pan over medium high heat. Let the sugar begin to melt, then start to mix with a spoon. Mix occasionally until sugar has completely melted into a lightly golden color. Slowly and carefully pour in heavy cream-the sugar is going to immediately steam and harden into a lump. Turn the heat down to medium and continuously stir caramel until it is completely melted again and mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes. Stir in butter, vanilla, and salt, and mix until butter has melted completely. Take caramel off the heat and let come to almost room temperature.
• While caramel is cooling, make apple layer : In a large bowl, combine apples, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg, and stir to make sure it is well mixed. Let stand for 10 minutes.
• Make crust and crumble : Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. Line the baking dish with foil, then grease foil with butter.
• Put flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 5 times to combine. Add butter and pulse until it is cut to the size of peas. Add egg and heavy cream and pulse until mixture has the texture of wet sand and, when pressed between your fingers, holds its shape.
• Take 3/4 of the shortbread dough and press it into the prepared baking sheet. The bottom crust should be about 1/2-inch thick. Use a slotted spoon to remove apples from the bowl and spread evenly over top of shortbread. Cover the apples with the caramel sauce, gently reheating it over low heat if it's become too thick to spread. Use your fingers to form the remaining shortbread into crumbs and sprinkle the top with crumbs.
• Bake bars until top is golden and bubbling, about 50 minutes. Let cool completely before cutting.
