Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1.5 tablespoons Granular sweetener (erythritol or stevia blend)
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or ramekin, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
Crack the egg into the mixture and add the almond milk and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until a smooth batter forms, ensuring there are no lumps.
If desired, fold in sugar-free chocolate chips for an extra touch of sweetness.
Microwave the mug on high for 45-60 seconds, depending on your microwave's wattage. Start checking at 45 seconds to ensure it doesn’t overcook; the cake should be set but slightly moist in the center.
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave and let it cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying.
Optional: Top with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for an extra treat.
