Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 0.25 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.125 teaspoons salt
- 0.125 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon diced cooked bacon or ham (optional)
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh herbs (e.g., parsley or chives)
- 0.5 teaspoons butter (for greasing the mug)
Instructions
Grease the inside of a microwave-safe mug or cup with butter to prevent sticking.
Crack the egg into the mug and whisk it lightly with a fork.
Add the milk, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper to the mug. Stir well until all the ingredients are combined and smooth.
Fold in the shredded cheese and optional diced bacon or ham, mixing evenly throughout the batter.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh herbs evenly on top for a burst of flavor and garnish.
Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Check after 90 seconds to ensure the mixture is fully set but still soft. Continue microwaving in 10-second intervals if needed.
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot) and let it sit for 1 minute before serving.
Enjoy your warm and comforting 'Reheatable Cup Full of Love' directly from the mug, or transfer it to a plate if desired.
