- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon dark chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Add the maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the mug, and stir until a smooth batter forms.
If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips for extra gooeyness.
Microwave the mug on high for 60 to 70 seconds, depending on your microwave's power. The top should look set but still moist.
