Caramel-chocolate crunchies

By Abigail Donnelly
10
Easy
15 minutes
35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 8 T golden syrup
  • 230 g butter, cubed
  • 1 t bicarbonate of soda
  • 120 g oats
  • 140 g cake flour
  • 100 g sugar
  • 200 g mixed toasted pumpkin and sunflower seeds
  • 80 g desiccated coconut
  • 1 x 360 g can caramel treat
  • 100 g dark chocolate, melted

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a rectangular baking dish with baking paper. In a saucepan over a medium heat, melt the syrup and butter together, then add the bicarbonate of soda and mix in.

Add the oats, flour, sugar, mixed seeds and coconut and mix through. Pour into the baking dish and press down. Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool down slightly, then spread the Caramel Treat over the top and drizzle with the melted chocolate. Allow to set, then cut into squares and serve.

TASTE’s take: You can leave off the caramel and chocolate if you prefer - these sweet treats are just as yummy.
