Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F) and grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan. Alternatively, line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until fully combined.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, old-fashioned oats, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate small bowl or measuring cup, stir together the oatmeal stout beer, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture in three additions, alternating with the stout-yogurt mixture in two additions, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combinedβdo not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove it from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy with a cup of coffee or a cold glass of stout.
