Ingredients

    1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
    1 cup spelt flour
    1 tsp nutritional yeast flakes (optional)
    ½ tsp smoked sea salt
    ½ tsp nutmeg
    ½ tsp baking soda
    ¼ tsp baking powder
    ¼ cup vegan “buttery sticks”, cut into cubes
    ¼ cup shortening, cut into cubes
    ¼ cup large-flake rolled oats
    2 tablespoons coarse raw sugar
    ¾ cup unsweetened soymilk
    2 tbsp vinegar
    2 tsp vanilla
    ⅔ cup Simple Salted Caramel Sauce

Directions

Heat the oven to 350ºF and grease a 9” springform pan.
Whisk the flours, nutritional yeast, salt, nutmeg, baking soda and baking powder.
Add the margarine and shortening, cutting into the flour mixture to create coarse crumbs.
Reserve ½ cup crumbs, add the oats and coarse sugar and set aside.
Combine the milk, vinegar, vanilla and caramel syrup, then stir into the remaining flour mixture until just combined.
Spread in the pan and top with the crumb mixture.
Bake for 45 minutes in a preheated oven. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
Cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then release the sides and cool completely.
