Tips:

  • For a chewier brownie, use less flour and more oats. For a cakier brownie, use more flour and less oats.
  • To make the brownies even more decadent, add a layer of chocolate ganache or frosting.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To make sure the brownies are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, they're done.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal brownies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them chewy or cakey, with chocolate chips or nuts, oatmeal brownies are sure to be a hit.
