You’re 3 minutes away from sweet tooth attack to moist, rich cake in your hot little hands. I affectionately call this “teacup cake” because it’s a petite version that makes just enough to satisfy my sweet tooth.
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 tablespoons white whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour (sub your favorite gluten-free flour blend for a GF version)
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter (I use all-natural creamy peanut butter)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (could substitute dairy milk for non-vegan version)
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup (could substitute granulated sugar, brown sugar, or honey for non-vegan version)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)
- Chocolate chips or chocolate chunks for topping (I use these dairy-free chocolate chips)
DIRECTIONS:
- Add all ingredients except the chocolate chips (if using) to an 8-ounce or larger microwave-safe mug. Use a fork to stir together until combined. It might seem lumpy at first but keep stirring and it’ll resemble cake batter in no time!
- Microwave on high until the cake has risen and springs back slightly when you poke it, 45-60 seconds. If it’s not done after 60 seconds, try cooking in 15-second intervals until done. (To bake in the oven, heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and place batter in an oven-safe ramekin or oven-safe mug. Bake until domed and the top springs back when you poke it, 15-20 minutes. )
- Top with chocolate chips or chunks if desired and enjoy right away.
