Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan and line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the rolled oats and milk together. Let them soak for about 10 minutes until the oats are softened.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
To the oat and milk mixture, add the melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients. Mix until just incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar before serving.
