Apple, Oat, Dulce De Leche Bars

I have a treat for you guys today. I’m participating in Baked By Rachel’s Apple a Day. She asked fellow bloggers to help her post 30 days of apple recipes in September.

I’ve done themed weeks in the past and even attempted to only post pink foods last October, but I’ve never heard of a blogger posting 30 days of one type of recipe. Obviously, it’s a brilliant idea! I’ve enjoyed seeing all the apple posts going up every day. It has given me a lot of apple inspiration and I’ve definitely added to my must-bake list this month. Be sure to go check out these Apple, Oat, Dulce De Leche Bars that I made for the occasion.

One Year Ago: Watermelon Arugula Goat Cheese Salad and Baked Zucchini Sticks with Caramelized Onion Dipping Sauce
Two Years Ago: Raw Summer Vegetable Pasta and Garlic Naan
Four Years Ago: Lime and Coconut Margarita Cupcakes and Squash and Turkey Lasagna
Five Years Ago: Chicken sausage, spinach and mushroom pasta and Easy Lemon Cookies

Bars and Brownies, Dessert

Had I been at your dinner party you wouldn’t have had to cook anything. I would have just completely indulged in this gorgeous cake!

This cake looks incredible! coconut and lemon are two of my favorite flavors; I’m glad you don’t have to choose one or the other with this recipe.

Beautiful cake! I’ve been craving a coconut cake, but I know too many people who don’t like coconut cake that if I made it I wouldn’t have anyone to share. Boo.

Love lemon curd, love coconut, especially love a cake that lets me “frost” the sides with ease. This looks so yummy!!

I told my girlfriend I would bake her a cake for her birthday this Sunday !!! I got lemon curd and coconut stuck in my brain, so I started googling… which led me to your page !!! This recipie looks almost perfect !!

Couple questions…

Do you think the coconut extract was too strong for the cake, because you also have the browned coconut pcs too? I was considering vanilla bean cake, lemon curd and toasted coconut on the outside… but perhaps that wouldn’t be enough coconut flavour…. your thoughts?

Lastly… what did you use as the frosting to keep the toasted coconut on? It looks like whipping cream…. ?!?!?

Thanks !!!
Kelly

P.S
This is the first cake I’ve ever baked !!! lol
