Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1 cup gluten-free flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup caramel sauce store-bought or homemade

Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking dish

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Stir until well mixed. Pour in melted butter and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 cup of this mixture for topping.
  2. If making homemade caramel, melt caramel candies with a splash of cream over low heat until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Press the remaining oat mixture into the bottom of a greased or lined baking dish. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the crust, drizzle caramel sauce over the chocolate chips, and crumble the reserved oat mixture on top.
  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the top is golden brown. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
