How to Make Healthy 5 Minute Mug Cake
- Lightly grease a large mug (at least 12 oz) with cooking spray or oil.
- In the mug, whisk together the whole wheat flour, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and baking powder until well combined.
- Add the almond milk, olive oil, egg, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until a smooth batter forms.
- If using, stir in the dark chocolate chips.
- Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes, or until the cake is cooked through. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave; start with 2 minutes and add 30 seconds if needed. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Carefully remove the mug from the microwave. Let the cake cool for 1-2 minutes before gently inverting it onto a plate.
- Enjoy your healthy and delicious 5-minute mug cake immediately!
