Ingredients
Vegan Birthday Cake with Sprinkles
- 1 cup unsweetened oat or almond milk
- â…“ cup melted vegan butter
- 1 cup cane sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cup regular or gluten free all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoon vegan rainbow sprinkles
Vanilla Icing Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoon softened vegan butter
- 1 tablespoon almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Vegan Cream Cheese Frosting
- 1 ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 oz vegan cream cheese

Instructions
Vegan Birthday Cake with Sprinkles
- Preheat oven to 375
- In a large mixing bowl, mix the almond or oat milk, melted butter, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and vanilla. Then, mix in the flour. Option to add 2 tablespoon of sprinkles to the batter (funfetti style) or wait and add them on top of the frosting. Pour the batter into a 9 inch loaf pan or 8 inch round pan with the batter.
- Bake for about 45 minutes or until the cake is golden if baking in a loaf form. If baking in a round pan, you will wake to bake the cake for less time. I recommend starting with 30 minutes and adding on more time if needed.
- While the cake is baking, use an electric hand mixer to mix together the icing ingredients. Spread it over the loaf while it's warm OR allow the loaf to cool and then spread the icing. Either way... it's delicious! Top with sprinkles and enjoy!

Just made this with my 4 yr old. Super easy and very tasty! Didnt have butter on hand so I used coconut oil in the cake, and just left it out of the frosting. It was perfect!

Do I still need to add xanthum gum if I am making it a gluten free cake?
Jillian Glenn says
Not needed. You just need to follow the recipe as instructed 🙂
Nicolette says
do I need to keep the cake/ frosting refrigerated if I am serving the next day? Thank you!
Jillian says
Hi Nicolette! The fridge tends to dry out baked goods so I would recommend leaving this on the countertop in an airtight container. I usually wait to frost it until just before serving but since the frosting doesn't have dairy - it will be fine left at room temp.
