Ingredients

Servings

  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter

Instructions

  1. Put all the ingredients apart from the chocolate chips in a small mug and mix really well with a spoon.
  2. Press the chocolate into the top of the mixture. Microwave for 1 minute.
  3. Enjoy immediately either by itself or with a small scoop of ice cream/nice cream on top!

Notes

  • Make sure you only add a level tablespoon of coconut flour. Coconut flour absorbs a lot of moisture so adding more might make your mug cake too dry.
  • If you don’t have any coconut flour you can use almond flour instead. If you decide to use ordinary plain flour I’d use brown sugar as the sweetener. I didn’t like the texture when I made this mug cake with plain flour and date/maple syrup.
  • You can also make a gooey chocolate version of this by using cacao or cocoa powder instead of the coconut flour!
  • I find that 1 minute in my high-power microwave is just about right. Not too runny, not too dry. If your microwave is a lower power one, simply check your mug cake after one minute. Scoop out a spoonful of pudding. Too gooey for you? Microwave for another 20 seconds!
  • There is no reason why you can't make this in separate ramekins (or mugs!) for more than 1 person. 
  • I would recommend mixing up the ingredients just before eating, however, so that the coconut flour (which is very absorbent!) doesn't soak up too much moisture.
