Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Almond flour
- 0.25 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Melted butter or coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit (optional)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or ramekin, combine the almond flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of dry ingredients.
Crack the egg directly into the mug and whisk it into the dry mixture using a fork or small whisk until fully combined.
Stir in the melted butter or coconut oil, along with honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract if using.
If desired, gently fold in chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit for added flavor and texture.
Microwave on high for 60 seconds. Depending on your microwave's power, check at 50 seconds to avoid overcooking.
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it may be hot) and let the muffin cool for a minute before enjoying directly from the mug or turning it out onto a plate.
