Instructions

1. In a small sauce pan over low heat add the milk and cream.
2. Bring to so a simmer. You do not want to boil this.
3. While the milk is simmering, in a medium pan over medium heat, add in the pecans and brown sugar.
4. Gently stir them around to toast the nuts and melt the brown sugar. ~5-6 minutes. You will ‘smell’ the nuts when they have that warm nutty smell.
5. When the brown sugar has crystalized to the pecans, turn the heat off and allow the nuts to cool.
6. When steam starts to come off of the milk, add 2 tablespoon caramel sauce and stir to combine.
7. When the milk caramel mixture is combined, add in the oats and stir.
8. While stirring gently, cook for 3-4 minutes or until desired thickness is reached. If it’s too thick add a tablespoon of milk.
9. Pour the cooked caramel oatmeal into a bowl, garnish with sugared pecans, chocolate chips and remaining 2 tablespoon of caramel sauce.
