Healthy Coffee Cake in a Mug
Description
The recipe uses a small bowl or microwavable mug to combine a buttermilk pancake mix base with milk (or dairy-free alternative), a sugar substitute or sugar, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil. These ingredients create a batter that, when microwaved for one minute, transforms into a soft, moist coffee cake.
The brown sugar and cinnamon crumble sprinkled on top before cooking adds warmth and sweetness with a gently spiced crust. The mix-and-cook method makes this an accessible option for individual servings without traditional oven baking.
This coffee cake mug is convenient for immediate enjoyment and can be customized by using gluten-free pancake mix or non-dairy milk to fit dietary needs.
Notes specifically mention easy substitutions for gluten-free or dairy-free versions simply by changing the pancake mix or milk used.
