This chocolate mug cake is a single-serve grain-free, refined sugar-free dessert (or breakfast) in a mug! Its a great quick recipe for when you are craving something comforting but don’t want to all the carbs. This recipe has been adapted from Nom Nom Paleo as a nut-free version.
Ingredients
• 3 tablespoons oat flour (you can use almond flour as well)
• 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa
• ⅛ teaspoon baking soda
• ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 tablespoon avocado oil or melted ghee
• 1½ tablespoon maple syrup or 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon honey or 2 tablespoons allulose (for keto)
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
Instructions
• In a measuring cup, add the almond flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until uniform.
• Add the maple syrup or sweetener of choice, avocado oil, vanilla extract, and egg and whisk the batter until smooth.
• Pour the batter into a microwave-safe mug (6- to 8-ounce size is optimal), place the mug in the center of your microwave (it will rise more evenly in that spot), and cook on high power for 1-2 minutes. The paleo mug cake is finished cooking when it puffs up and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Let the cake cool for a few minutes and top with whipped coconut cream, if desired.
