Mug cake

Hiii everyone! :) Sorry I haven't been on in so long. I'm on spring break and I usually don't like to open my computer during time I am off school... Haha.

While I have been on break, I have tried so many new recipes!! Some were good, some were fails. One of the really good ones was a rice pudding. IT WAS DELISH. You should go make some. Now.

But not RIGHT now. Because I have an awesome recipe to share with you.


Chocolate chip cinnamon mug cake. Yes, I did say mug cake. As in, you can make this in a coffee mug. In the microwave. This recipe is so easy. I have to say this was the best gluten free, sugar free, dairy free, cake EVER. It was so fluffy, moist, and just plain yum.

Adapted from here.

(serves one) 

YOU WILL NEED:
  • About a tbsp of coconut oil
  • A little bit less than 1/4 cup of coconut flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 cup soymilk (any other non-dairy milk, or even water will work as well)
  • 1 tbsp agave nectar 
  • 1/4 tsp almond butter
  • a few dashes of cinnamon
  • Carob chips (use as many as your heart desires!)
DIRECTIONS: Melt the coconut oil in the mug and then coat the inside of the mug generously. Add in the egg and beat well. Put in the coconut flour and baking powder and mix. Next, add the milk, agave and almond butter and mix thoroughly. Lastly, combine the cinnamon and carob chips with the batter. Microwave on high for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Turn the cup over onto a plate ( careful it will be hot!)  and there you have it! Your very own mug cake!
