Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups brown sugar
- 0.25 cups honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cups milk
- 0.5 cups raisins or chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add the honey, vanilla extract, and egg to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until everything is fully incorporated.
If using optional raisins or chocolate chips, fold them into the batter at this stage.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top turns golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow it to cool completely before slicing into squares.
Store the oatmeal squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze them for longer storage.
