Ingredients:
- 3 tbsp almond flour
- 1 tbsp coconut flour
- 1 tbsp erythritol (or any sweetener of your choice)
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tsp lemon zest (optional, for extra flavor)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp melted butter (or coconut oil)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
-
Prepare the mug:
- Choose a microwave-safe mug (about 8 oz capacity).
-
Mix the dry ingredients:
- In the mug, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir them together until evenly mixed.
-
Add the wet ingredients:
- To the dry ingredients, add the egg, melted butter, lemon juice, lemon zest (if using), and vanilla extract. Stir everything together until well combined and smooth.
-
Microwave:
- Microwave the mug cake on high for 1 minute and 20 seconds to 1 minute and 30 seconds. Check the cake; it should be set but still moist in the center. If it needs a bit more time, microwave for an additional 10-15 seconds.
-
Let it cool slightly:
- Let the cake sit for a minute or two to cool down a bit.
-
Enjoy:
- You can eat it straight from the mug or transfer it to a plate. Optionally, top with whipped cream or a few fresh berries for an extra treat.
