Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- 3 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Fresh or frozen blueberries
- 0.5 teaspoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug (minimum 12 oz capacity), combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix the dry ingredients well with a fork to ensure they are evenly distributed.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the mug. Stir until the batter is smooth and there are no lumps.
Gently fold in the blueberries, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Microwave the mug on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes, or until the cake has risen and is fully cooked. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave, so start with 1 minute 30 seconds and check for doneness. The cake should be springy to the touch but not wet in the center.
Allow the mug cake to cool for 1-2 minutes before eating, as it will be very hot.
Optional: Dust the top of the mug cake with a light sprinkle of powdered sugar before serving for extra sweetness and presentation.
