Mix the Oatmeal Batter & Swirl the Cinnamon Ribbon
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch ceramic baking dish. In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, eggs, pure maple syrup, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir in the old-fashioned rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and kosher salt. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
- In a small bowl, stir together the 3 tablespoons softened butter, packed dark brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon until a thick paste forms. Drop spoonfuls of the cinnamon-sugar paste over the oat batter and use a butter knife to swirl it in figure-eight patterns.
Bake Until Golden & Drizzle With Cream Cheese Glaze
- Bake uncovered for 20–22 minutes until the edges are golden brown, the center is puffed and set, and the cinnamon swirl is bubbling.
- While the oatmeal bakes, whisk the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and vanilla until smooth and pourable. Let the baked oatmeal cool for 5 minutes, then drizzle generously with the warm cream cheese glaze and slice into 6 squares.
