巧克力焦糖燕麥方塊
Vegan Chocolate Caramel Oat Bars
這巧克力焦糖燕麥方塊真的、真的、真的非常美味! 它讓我覺得真的是「我的食物」。我想你應該知道我的意思的。 (眨眼)
它總共有 3 層:燕麥底層、焦糖餡層,以及燕麥酥碎表層。聽起來和看起來好像有點複雜? 別擔心,製作它其實很簡單,只要你有一台食物處理機,還有仔細看食譜就沒問題。
燕麥底層和表層酥碎是用相同的基底,但表層的部份有再加一些不同的食材,增加它的口感變化。另外當然歡迎更多的巧克力豆出現。
這個全素巧克力焦糖燕麥方塊質地是很穩實的黏在一起,你可以把它作為「帶了就走」的早餐選擇之一。(是的,早上吃巧克力條,為何不呢?)
這個巧克力焦糖燕麥方塊熱得、冷得都好吃。若想吃熱的,你可以把它用烤箱再烤熱 3-5 分鐘,或是直接從冰箱拿出來就享用,通常我是以第二種方式享用。(因為我懶 : P)
熱的吃或冷的吃,兩種質地稍有不同;熱的時候會比較酥鬆一些,而冷的時候吃,口感會比較紮實。你可以兩種版本都試試看,看你喜歡哪一種,或是也就別想太多,因為兩種都好吃,至少我是這麼覺得的啦。
我不確定我先前有沒有提過,但不管如何我想和你們分享,就是我這一年來發現我很愛燕麥的香氣,真的,它有種獨特的穀香滋味,讓我深深著迷,而且烤過後,那香氣變得更明顯、更有深度。
燕麥底層並不會很甜,與中間的焦糖層搭配在一起剛剛好,但如果你想讓它變得更「頑皮」一點,那麼可以再添加 2 大匙的椰糖來增加到你喜歡的甜味,讓它變成一個特別的甜點。
我真的很愛它們,希望你們嚐了之後也是。如果你像我一樣愛巧克力滋味的食物,也可以試試讓我深深著迷的 巧克力夏威夷豆穀片 和 地瓜巧克力布朗尼。現在,我們來動手做吧!

巧克力焦糖燕麥方塊 Vegan Chocolate Caramel Oat Bars
食材
Oatmeal Crust
- 90 g (1 cup) rolled oats 傳統燕麥片, use gluten-free ones if sensitive to gluten
- 30 g (⅓ cup) quick-cooking oats 即食燕麥片, or chop rolled oats in a food processor for a few seconds
- ⅛ tsp salt 鹽
- 1 Tbsp ground flax seed 亞麻籽粉
- 40 ml applesauce 蘋果醬, 2 Tbsp + 2 tsp
- 4 Tbsp
coconut sugar 椰糖 , or date sugar/cane sugar - 3 Tbsp
coconut oil 椰子油 , melted
Caramel Filling
- 75 g (packed ⅓cup) pitted dates 去籽椰棗乾
- 3 Tbsp almond butter 杏仁醬, or peanut butter,
Homemade Almond Butter 自製杏仁醬 - 4 Tbsp water 水
- A pinch of salt 鹽
Add-ins for topping
- 1 Tbsp almond meal 杏仁粉
- 1 Tbsp rolled oats 傳統燕麥片
- 2 Tbsp dark chocolate chips 黑巧克力豆
- 1 Tbsp almonds 杏仁, roughly chopped
作法
- Preheat your oven at 175 C / 350 F.
To make the crust
- Add the rolled oats to a food processor to ground into flour.
- Add all crust ingredients to a bowl and mix to combine. The mixture should stick together when pressed together. Set it aside.
To make the caramel
- Add all ingredients to the same food processor to blend to as smooth as possible. Stop and scrape down the sides as needed.
Layer up
- Line an 8" loaf pan with parchment paper. Take about ¾ of the crust mixture (I kind of eyeball it) to the pan and press down to form the base.
- Spread the caramel onto the base evenly.
- To the left crust mixture, add the almond meal, rolled oats, chopped almonds, and chocolate chips. Mix all together.
- Sprinkle the mixture onto the caramel layer. Gently press them down to stick to the caramel.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until it's set and the topping is golden.
- Transfer onto a wire rack to cool for at least 15 minutes to set before slicing. It's better if you let it stay in the fridge for a while so it gets firmer for cutting. It could be enjoyed both warm or cold.
