Method
Preparation
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the protein powder, oat or almond flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
- In another bowl, beat the egg until frothy, then stir in the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
- Carefully fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until no large lumps remain.
Cinnamon Swirl
- In a small bowl, mix the coconut oil or melted butter, brown sugar, and additional ground cinnamon until it’s a lovely paste.
- Pour half of the batter into a microwave-safe mug. Add half of the cinnamon mixture and swirl it with a toothpick or knife. Pour in the remaining batter and repeat.
Cooking
- Microwave on high for about 1 to 1.5 minutes, or until the cake springs back when touched.
Frosting
- In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, and maple syrup or powdered sugar for a creamy frosting.
Serving
- Let your mug cake cool slightly, then top it with the luscious frosting and serve.
Notes
Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days. Microwave for 20-30 seconds to reheat.
