Instructions

1
  • Peel, core, then cut apples into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Juice lemon.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
  • When hot, add 1/4 cup packed brown sugar and 2 tbsp butter. (NOTE: Do not use softened butter, save this for step 2.)Stir until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to a simmer, 2-4 min. Stir in cream until mixture is combined, 1 min.
  • Add chopped apple, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/8 tsp salt and 1 tbsp lemon juice.
  • Sauté apples, stirring occasionally, until apples are soft and mixture thickens slightly, 8-10 min. Remove from heat.
2
  • Meanwhile, grease an 8x8-inch baking metal tin with 1 tsp softened butter. Line the base and sides with a piece of parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the sides. (NOTE: This will help you remove the bars from the tin later on.) Press down on the parchment to adhere.
  • Add oats, 3/4 cup flour, coconut, remaining brown sugar, remaining cinnamon, 1/4 tsp baking soda and 1/4 tsp salt to a large bowl. Whisk until combined.
  • Add remaining softened butter, then combine with your fingertips until mixture is crumbly but holds together when squeezed.
3
  • Press two-thirds of the oat mixture into the base of the prepared pan.  (TIP: Use the back of a measuring cup
  • to help smooth out the oat mixture.)
  • Spoon apple mixture over top, then spread into an even layer. Sprinkle with remaining oat mixture.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven until topping is golden-brown and apples are fragrant, 25-30 min.
4
  • Place the baking tin on a wire rack to cool for 5 min. 
  • Transfer the tin to the freezer to cool completely, 30-40 min,
  • Run a sharp knife around the edges of the tin, then remove bars by pulling on the parchment paper.
  • Allow bars to cool for 5 min on a wire rack before transferring to the freezer to cool completely, 30-40 min.
  • Remove bars from the tin and slice into squares using a sharp knife.
