Ingredients
- ¼ cup pumpkin puree
- ¼ cup oat flour
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil , melted
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe mug, combine the pumpkin puree, oat flour, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Use a whisk or spatula to stir well, until there are no more lumps of flour visible. The batter will be slightly thick and not runny in texture.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips, and save a few to sprinkle on top. Then place the mug in the microwave to cook on high power for 90 seconds. The cake will rise as it cooks.
- Let the mug cake cool for 3 to 5 minutes before you enjoy it with a fork. The center should be nice and fluffy!

Notes
- Nutrition information is for the entire batch without the optional chocolate chips. This information is automatically calculated and is just an estimate, not a guarantee.
- Gluten-Free Note: Oat flour is naturally gluten-free, but it can be contaminated during processing. Be sure to buy a "certified gluten-free" package if you need to.
- Pumpkin Pie Spice Note: If you don't have this spice blend on hand, you can swap it for a half teaspoon of ground cinnamon plus a pinch of ground ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Oil Swap: You can use any other mild-flavored oil or melted butter if you don't like coconut oil. Use refined coconut oil to add zero coconut flavor.
