Preheat the oven to 300°F and coat an 8-inch square pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients: melted butter or oil, egg white, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and almond milk until well combined.
