Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup heavy cream, cold
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine oats, flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt.
  • Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in egg and vanilla extract until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Press the dough into mini pie plates. Prick the bottom with a fork. Blind bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine granulated sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture turns a deep amber color. Watch carefully as this happens quickly and can burn very easily.
  • Remove from heat and carefully whisk in heavy cream and butter until smooth. Stir in sea salt.
  • Let the caramel cool slightly, then pour into the baked oatmeal crusts. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  • In a cold bowl, whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  • Spoon or pipe whipped cream onto the chilled caramel filling. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Serve immediately or keep chilled until ready to serve.
