Notes
- Use refrigerated almond or coconut milk cartons instead of canned for best texture; dairy milk can be substituted.
- Microwave times vary; start with 90 seconds at 80% power and adjust as needed to avoid overcooking.
- For more servings, mix larger batter and divide among mugs equally.
- Standard 8-ounce mugs prevent overflow; ramekins may overflow slightly.
