- Grease or line an 8 x 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Pour in the oat mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes until golden brown and set.
- Make the icing while the oats bake. Combine cream cheese, milk, maple syrup and vanilla to a bowl and whisk until smooth. I used a hand held mixer for faster work and a smoother texture. Set aside until oats are baked.
- Remove the baked oats from oven and let cool on a wire rack. Let cool 10-15 minutes.
- Cover with icing. Cut into squares. Serve warm or wrap and save for later.
- This recipe can be doubled for more servings.
