Comment préparer Oatmeal Butterscotch Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Adjust oven rack to the middle position.
- Line a 13x9 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on all sides for easy removal.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups rolled oats, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a small saucepan, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the butter turns a nutty brown color (about 12 minutes). Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Pour the hot brown butter over 1 cup butterscotch chips in a large bowl. Whisk until the chips are completely melted and smooth.
- Whisk in ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until dissolved. Then, whisk in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 large egg until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients in two additions, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 17-19 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool slightly.
- **For the glaze:** In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove from heat and pour the hot sugar mixture over ½ cup butterscotch chips in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and glossy.
- Drizzle the glaze evenly over the warm bars.
- Let the bars cool completely on the rack. This will take approximately 1 ½ hours, allowing time for the glaze to set.
- Once completely cool, use the foil overhang to lift the bars from the pan. Cut into bars and serve.
