Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Apple, peeled and diced
- 0.25 cup Honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and honey until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Gently fold in the diced apples into the batter.
Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan, pressing it down lightly with a spatula or your hands to ensure it is compact and even.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the oatmeal squares cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, slice into 12 squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer.
