Ingredients
- ¾ cup whole wheat pastry flour
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1 egg large
- 1 ¼ cup nonfat milk skim
- 3 tablespoons avocado oil (or other neutral oil, such as canola)
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 6 tablespoons Montmorency tart cherries divided
- cooking spray
- maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat pastry flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg. Pour in the milk, oil and syrup. Whisk to combine.
- Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients. Whisk to combine, until most of the lumps are gone. Some lumps are okay.
- Lightly coat a mug or small coffee cup with cooking spray. Scoop ⅓ cup of the batter into the mug. Stir 1 tablespoon (except reserve a few cherries) into the batter in the mug. Lightly press the reserved cherries (3-4) onto the top of the batter.
- Microwave for 45 to 60 seconds, or until the batter is set. (My microwave is 1200W and it took 55 seconds).
- Drizzle with maple syrup. Serve.
