Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Oat flour
- 1 tablespoon Ground flaxseed
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1 tablespoon Natural peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon Maple syrup
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Fruit preserves or jam (low-sugar or no-sugar-added)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or ramekin, combine the oat flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the almond milk, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Mix thoroughly until a smooth batter forms. Make sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the mug or ramekin to incorporate all ingredients.
Gently drop the fruit preserves or jam onto the center of the batter. Do not mix it in; it will create a delicious gooey center as the muffin cooks.
Place the mug or ramekin in the microwave and cook on high for 60–75 seconds, depending on the power of your microwave (start checking at 60 seconds). The muffin should rise and set but still feel moist.
Carefully remove the mug or ramekin from the microwave (it will be hot). Let it cool for a minute before enjoying your healthier PB&J 1-minute muffin straight from the mug or inverted onto a plate.
