Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Granulated stevia (or preferred diabetic-friendly sweetener)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Dark chocolate chips (sugar-free)
Instructions
In a standard-sized microwave-safe coffee mug, add the almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and granulated stevia. Use a fork to mix the dry ingredients until they are well combined and free of lumps.
Crack the egg directly into the mug and add the unsweetened almond milk and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until a smooth batter forms.
Gently fold in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Place the mug in the center of the microwave and cook on high for 60–90 seconds, depending on the wattage of your microwave. Check after 60 seconds by gently touching the top of the muffin—if it feels firm and springy, it is done. If not, microwave in 10-second increments until fully cooked.
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave, as it may be hot. Allow the muffin to cool for 1–2 minutes before enjoying directly from the mug or tipping it onto a plate.
Optional: For added flavor, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream on top before serving.
