Ingredients

• 2 cups Rolled oats
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cups Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Allow the oatmeal squares to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Once cooled, slice into 9 squares and serve. These can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
