Cuisine: Keto
Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon erythritol
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 Oreo cookies, crushed (optional)
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 2 tablespoons almond flour, 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon erythritol, 1/4 teaspoon baking powder, 1 egg, 1 tablespoon melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 crushed Oreo cookies (if using).
- In a microwave-safe mug, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, and baking powder. Stir well to ensure that the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg until well beaten. Then, add the melted butter and vanilla extract to the egg, mixing until fully combined.
- Pour the egg mixture into the mug with the dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.
- If you are using crushed Oreo cookies, fold them into the batter gently to distribute them evenly.
- Microwave the mug cake on high for about 60 seconds. Keep an eye on it as microwaves vary in power; you want the cake to rise and be set in the middle but not overcooked.
- Once cooked, carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot!). Let it cool for a minute before enjoying your delicious Keto Oreo Mug Cake.
Tips
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for the smoothest batter consistency.
- Use a large microwave-safe mug to prevent overflow during cooking.
- Don't overmix the batter - stir just until ingredients are combined to keep the cake tender.
- Watch the cooking time carefully - microwaves vary, so start with 50-60 seconds and add more time if needed.
- Let the mug cake rest for 1-2 minutes after cooking to allow it to set properly.
- For extra richness, top with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream or a sprinkle of crushed keto-friendly cookies.
- If you prefer a less sweet version, reduce the erythritol slightly to taste.
