Birthday Cake Overnight Oats (Vegan!)
These creamy overnight oats have the best cake batter flavor! Easy to prep in 5 minutes for a fun & delicious make-ahead breakfast that tastes like a dessert.
Servings: 1 large
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (GF if needed)
- 1/2 cup dairy-free milk
- 2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp. almond butter
- 2 tsp. chia seeds
- 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract (or slightly more)
- 1/8 tsp. almond extract
- 1 Tbsp. vegan rainbow sprinkles*
Instructions
- In a small jar, add all ingredients except oats. Stir to combine.
- Add oats and stir again. Then gently press down with a spoon to make sure all oats are fully submerged in the liquid.
- Cover and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Serve as is, or top with vegan whipped cream, more sprinkles, fresh berries, sliced banana, etc. You can also add a splash of milk before serving for creaminess.
Notes
*Vegan sprinkles: Most often I use Watkins rainbow sprinkles or Whole Foods 365 brand. You can also opt to stir them in right before serving to avoid color bleeding or dulling.
For oil-free: Use sprinkles that don't include oil, or simply omit these.
For lower sugar: Decrease the maple syrup and/or omit the sprinkles.
Yield: Recipe makes 1 heaping cup which is 1 large or 2 smaller servings.
