Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a small bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let this mixture soak for about 10 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg, 1/2 cup maple syrup, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
Add the soaked oats (including any remaining liquid) to the wet ingredients and mix until combined.
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
While the muffins are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of milk in a small bowl. Adjust consistency with additional powdered sugar or milk as needed.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the muffins are cool, drizzle the maple glaze over the tops. Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving.
