How to Make Applesauce Cinnamon Microwave Mug Cake

  1. In a large mug (at least 12 oz), mash the applesauce with a fork until smooth.
  2. Add the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  3. Add the milk and oil. Stir until a smooth batter forms.
  4. Microwave on high for 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes, or until the cake is cooked through and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave.
  5. Let cool slightly before enjoying. Add a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of extra cinnamon for an extra touch of deliciousness!
