Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp almond flour
  • 1 tbsp coconut flour
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp dairy-free chocolate chips (optional)

Method
 

  1. In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until no lumps remain.
  2. Add the maple syrup, beaten egg, melted coconut oil, and vanilla. Stir with a fork until the batter is completely smooth, about 30 seconds.
  3. Microwave on high for 60 to 90 seconds, until the top looks set and the cake springs back when pressed lightly. Let cool 1 minute, then top with almond butter or extra chocolate chips and enjoy right away.

Notes

This mug cake is best eaten immediately while still warm. For a molten center, pull it from the microwave 10 seconds earlier. If your mug is extra large, the batter will spread out and cook faster, so check 15 seconds sooner.
