Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, salt, baking powder, and ground cinnamon (if using). Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir until the mixture forms a cohesive dough.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into small balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
Using the bottom of a glass or the palm of your hand, gently flatten each ball into a thin disc, about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the oatmeal thins to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, store the oatmeal thins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Enjoy as a snack, dessert, or breakfast treat!
