There’s caramel in it and on it! Serve with ice cream and you’ve reached nirvana.
1 14-oz. package caramels, unwrapped
1/3 c evaporated milk
5 large baking apples, peeled and sliced thin* (use a few different kinds for a variety of texture and flavor)
10 T cold butter, divided
2/3 c flour
½ c brown sugar
2/3 c oats
vanilla ice cream
Place caramels and evaporated milk in saucepan. Heat on low, stirring occasionally, until caramels are melted and smooth. Pour half of the caramel mixture into large bowl and stir in 2 tablespoons butter until butter is melted. Toss with apples. Pour apples/caramel into 9 x 13 buttered dish. In separate bowl, stir together flour and brown sugar. Cut in remaining 8 tablespoons butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in oats. Sprinkle over apples.
