Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons oat bran
- 1 tablespoon rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon flour (whole wheat or all-purpose)
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil or melted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon chopped nuts or chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh or dried fruit (optional)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or ramekin, combine the oat bran, rolled oats, flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
Add the honey or maple syrup, milk, melted coconut oil or butter, vanilla extract, and the egg. Stir thoroughly until a smooth batter forms, ensuring there are no lumps.
If using optional ingredients like nuts, chocolate chips, or fruit, gently fold them into the batter.
Tap the mug or ramekin lightly on the counter to remove any air bubbles and flatten the surface for even cooking.
Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the muffin is ready. Otherwise, microwave in 10-second increments until done.
Let the mug muffin cool for 1-2 minutes before carefully removing from the container or enjoying it directly from the mug.
Serve warm and enjoy your Sweet Speedy Breakfast Oat Bran Muffin with a side of coffee or tea.
