Step 1

Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and preparing a 9x13-inch baking dish with a layer of parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine oats, milk powder, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract until well blended.
