Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • ¼ cup maple syrup or honey
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut oil (for swirl)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (for swirl)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, baking powder, ½ teaspoon of cinnamon, and salt until evenly mixed.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the egg with the milk, maple syrup, melted butter, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.
  5. Pour half of the oatmeal mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the remaining tablespoon of melted butter, brown sugar, and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon to create your swirl mixture.
  7. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the first layer of oatmeal.
  8. Add the rest of the oatmeal mixture on top, followed by the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and the oats are set.
  10. Allow cooling slightly before cutting into squares and serving.

Notes

Avoid overmixing to keep your oatmeal squares tender and airy. Customize sweetness to your preference.
