A delightful fusion of cinnamon rolls and oatmeal, perfect for a quick and nutritious breakfast.

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). Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. Whisk together the rolled oats, baking powder, ½ teaspoon of cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  3. Combine the egg, milk, maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  5. Spread half of the oatmeal mixture evenly into the greased baking dish.
  6. Mix 1 tablespoon of melted butter, brown sugar, and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon in a small bowl to create the swirl. Sprinkle half of this mixture over the oatmeal layer.
  7. Pour the remaining oatmeal mixture on top, followed by the rest of the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the squares are set and lightly golden brown.
  9. Let the squares cool slightly before cutting. Serve warm, optionally drizzled with extra maple syrup.

Notes

For the best flavor, let the squares rest after baking. They can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
