Gluten-Free Mug Brownie
Description
The Gluten-Free Mug Brownie uses a combination of gluten-free flour and natural sweeteners like coconut sugar to produce a dense but moist brownie in minutes. Cocoa powder and a pinch of salt provide the core chocolate taste, while avocado oil adds healthy fat and tenderness. The optional additions of cinnamon, vanilla, or chocolate chips enhance the flavor complexity and richness without changing the fast preparation method. Microwaving until barely set ensures a fudgy center while avoiding drying out.
This mug brownie is served directly from the mug, perfect for a quick dessert or snack portion. Topping with ice cream after microwaving creates a warm-and-cold contrast that adds to the experience. Its convenience makes it suitable for spontaneous cravings or small kitchens without ovens.
