Vanilla Sheet Cake

This is such a fun and lightened-up cake for any time of the year. Berries are a great addition to the top for a ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Patriotic summertime cake or make it festive with holiday sprinkles for any celebration. In your plate, balance this is mostly a healthy fat source unless adding fruit, then it would be your starch also. Nobody will know itโ€™s blood sugar friendly and itโ€™s super duper moist too. Itโ€™s a hit every time.

Can this be made into cupcakes? Any way to add protein?

Iโ€™d recommend another of my recipes that has protein. Search ๐Ÿ” โ€œyellow cakeโ€ and the Crumbl copycat cakes will pop up. Cupcakes should work and cook 20 min or so

Followed the recipe exactly, my batter was pretty thick so it didnโ€™t pour, I had to spread it in the pan but it was delicious! Mine turned more golden brown and was done in about 35 minutes. I skipped the icing and just put a little Reddi-Wip on top with berries. This one will be on repeat this summer!
