Janik – Hi and thanks for your question. Castor sugar (known here in the United States as superfine sugar) is an acceptable substitute in this recipe. While it may not give you the exact flavor of brown sugar, it will add the necessary sweetness as well as caramelize on top to create the bruleed effect. Thanks again for dropping by. I hope you enjoy this recipe!

Sondra- Absolutely. Feel free to substitute prepared steel cut oats, adjusting the other ingredients as needed or desired.
