Ingredients
For the cake:
- 3 tablespoons white whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon strawberry protein powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 4 teaspoons honey
- 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla Greek Yogurt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Topping options:
- Cream cheese "frosting"
- 1 tablespoon reduced-fat cream cheese softened
- 1 tablespoon strawberry protein powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla Greek Yogurt
- Truvia to taste or sweetener of choice
Freek yogurt "frosting:
- 2 tablespoons vanilla Greek Yogurt
- 2 tablespoons strawberry protein powder
- Truvia to taste or sweetener of choice
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, stir together the white whole wheat flour, protein powder, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In a small, microwave safe bowl, melt the honey and coconut oil in the microwave (about 30 seconds.)
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the honey mixture, Greek yogurt and almond milk. Stir until smooth and well combined.
- Lightly spray a mug (mine was 12 oz) with cooking spray and pour the batter in. Microwave for 1 minute and 10 seconds, watching the microwave closely to make sure that your cake isn't exploding.
- Let cool for 1 minute and stir together topping of choice in a small bowl.
- Top with "frosting" and DEVOUR
Notes
- Everyone's microwaves are different, so yours may need less or more time as each microwave can give different results. Mine is 1000 watts and was perfect at 1 minute and 10 seconds. I would suggest try that and watching it closely while it cooks. Then, if it's still a little wet after 1 minute and 10 seconds, try microwaving it in 10 second intervals until it's done :)
