Conclusion

I hope you enjoy making this 3-Minute Chocolate Mug Cake. It's one of my favorite recipes!

Ingredients

  • Use a mug that holds at least 12 ounces to prevent overflow.
  • Cooking time may vary based on microwave wattage. It’s better slightly underdone than overdone.
  • For a nut-free version, use oat milk or another plant-based milk.

Instructions

  1. Stir together the oat flour, protein powder, cacao powder, coconut sugar and baking powder in a small mug or ramekin.
  2. Pour in the almond milk and half the chocolate chips. Stir until thoroughly combined.
  3. Top with remaining chocolate chips.
  4. Microwave for 60 seconds on high power and then in :10 second intervals thereafter until the batter rises to the top of the mug. This should take 70-80 seconds total.
  5. Let cool for 1 minute. Top with coarse salt, ice cream, or nut butter if desired and enjoy warm.
