Notes
- Helpful Tips:
- Microwave Times Vary: My sweet spot is 2 minutes and 40 seconds in my microwave on high power. Different microwaves heat differently. Start checking at the 2-minute mark to ensure your cake is perfectly set.
- Use a Microwave-Safe Coffee Mug: Be sure to use a mug that can hold at least 12 ounces (354 ml) to give your cake batter enough room to rise, and place it in the center of the microwave.
- Check the Center: You can check the center with a butter knife to check doneness.
- Gooey Cake: If you want a more moist and gooey cake, reduce the cooking time to 2 minutes.
- Extra Flavor: Garnish with a few teaspoons of coconut yogurt and extra blueberries for that extra refreshing, creamy bite.
- Storage: This Almond Flour Mug Cake is best enjoyed immediately as a single-serve dessert. However, if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds for the best texture.
