What’s In This Vanilla Cake Overnight Oats Recipe?

See the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

• Old Fashioned Oats: I used old fashioned oats for this recipe. I found old fashioned oats work much better than quick oats, as they hold up really well overnight.
• Plant-Based Vanilla Protein Powder
• Vanilla Extract: it’s super important to use real pure vanilla extract, and not artificial baking vanilla flavor. This real all natural vanilla is a fantastic ingredient to give this recipe an #extra boost.
• Maple Syrup
• Ground Flaxseeds: I always add a scoop in my oatmeal!  This flaxseed meal has a wonderful nutty flavor too. 
• Rainbow Sprinkles – because how fun are they?!

An Easy Breakfast With Protein Powder

I add plenty of peaches to agave this recipe naturally and give it a “cake” like flavor. Unlike traditional cake, there is no flour or sugar, only whole ingredients go into this oatmeal, making it a great way to rise & shine!
