These funfetti protein overnight oats taste like funfetti cake but are secretly healthy and packed with protein! They’re an easy, make-ahead breakfast for busy mornings with only 6 ingredients!
Colorful and bright and fun! WHEEEE!
Meet my current breakfast obsession, in the sense that I sometimes even eat it for dinner because SPRINKLES:
I can still taste this morning’s wholesome overnight oats all swirled up with vanilla-scented almond milk, crunchy sprinkles and Greek yogurt WITH protein powder FROSTING (and some crumbled up funfetti protein cookies because WHY NOT.)
Frosting, guys. You know, that light, whippy, sugary goodness on cakes, that is SOLE the reason why you’re cake-eating purpose in life is to MAKE SURE that you get the CORNER PIECE?
Maybe that’s just me though. I’ve got a thangggg for frosting and it just won’t QUIT.
Okay. Hittin’ pause so you can go make a bowl of it, grab your spoon, and then come back to finish.
Aaaaand, we’re back.
Funfetti ANYTHING is not new around this little space of the interwebz. It’s my not-so-secret-at-all obsession, and I kinda try to eat it any way possible always. I blame my momma who always made me Funfetti cupcakes to celebrate every birthday. Little did she know she was creating a sprinkle-eating, frosting-licking Funfetti MONSTER.
The cake for breakfast game? STRONG.
How-EV-er, those things take time. Which I like to pretend I don’t have because I live a very important and busy food-blogger person life. This means that my morning-moments are precious and need to be used WISELY. In my books, it’s better to spend NO time making breakfast, so that my busy self can be hard to work before the sun even RISES.
I can’t confirm nor deny that it’s just ‘cause I wanna sleep in longer though.
Picture yourself snuggled up in your jammies, juuuust about ready to call it a day, and then spending ONLY 3ish MINUTES stirring each fleck of oatmeal into creamy almond milk, until it’s JUST PERFECTLY moistened, and then throwing in a few tablespoons (handfuls obvi) of sprinkles. Walk to your refrigerator, put it in and wave good bye….until you’re reunited again in the morning.
NOW, picture the sweet, gluten free cake-filled dreams that your cozy, already-prepared for morning munchin’ self will have.

I am so excited to make this recipe! I have plain non-fat Greek yogurt and plain unsweetened almond milk at home. Can I use these? If so how should I change up the recipe? Thanks!!
Taylor Kiser says
Hi Alicia! Plain yogurt and almond milk are fine, but won’t give it the vanilla flavor! I can’t tell you for sure, as the recipe wasn’t testing with those ingredients, but I think you could just add a little vanilla extract! And, plain yogurt is not as sweet as vanilla, so you may need some honey, or sweetener of choice! Hope that helps and you love it!

Hi, I just discovered you thanks to Pure Wow. These overnight oats actually make me want to try overnight oats for the first time! Question for you, I have never even heard of butter extract before (insert embarrassed face). What else do you use it for? I’m trying to justify buying it. Thanks
Taylor Kiser says
Hey Courtney – so excited you’re here!!
Don’t worry – many people have never heard of it but it’s SO easy to find and really inexpensive!
I use it in a lot of things to give it buttery flavor without butter. One of my favs is this: https://www.foodfaithfitness.com/vegan-cake-batter-cashew-butter-with-macadamia-nuts/
it also lasts forever! 🙂
