Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a rectangular baking tray or tin (approximately 20x20 cm) with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the honey and vanilla extract. Remove from heat.
Pour the melted butter mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined. The mixture should come together and be slightly sticky.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking tray and press it down firmly with the back of a spoon or your hands to create an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the top is lightly toasted.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tray for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice into rectangles or squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
