Ingredients

For the Cake:

Optional Swirl or Streusel Topping
(Yields enough topping for one mug cake)

Directions:

  1. Prep the Mug: Lightly spray a small microwave-safe mug or teacup with oil. A short, shallow cup works best since the cake does not rise much.
  2. Mix the Cake: Add the dry ingredients to the mug: oat flour, baking powder, sweetener, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine. Then add the wet ingredients: Premier Protein® Almondmilk Protein Shake, vanilla, and applesauce. Mix until smooth.
  3. Add the Topping (optional)
    • Swirl: Mix the Premier Protein® Almondmilk Protein Shake, coconut oil, sweetener and cinnamon into a paste. Swirl into the batter.
    • Streusel: Add oat flour and chopped nuts to the paste before swirling on batter for added texture.
  4. Microwave: Heat on high for 1 minute. If needed, continue in 10-second intervals until the cake is firm but moist. Let it rest for 1 minute. If desired, top with cinnamon, chopped almonds, or a dollop of non-dairy whipped topping.

Quick Tips

  • If you don’t have oat flour, you can make your own by blending rolled oats until fine.
  • Adjust cinnamon or sweetener to taste based on your preferences.
  • The applesauce adds a bit of softness and flavor, but the recipe still works just fine without it. You can omit it for a slightly drier texture or swap half for a small amount of oil or non-dairy butter to keep it plant-based.
  • Mug cakes made in the microwave naturally cook from the inside out, trapping steam in the batter. This creates a smooth, moist surface instead of a crumbly, browned crust. For a slightly more baked appearance, microwave for 50 to 60 seconds, then transfer to an oven or toaster oven at 375°F for 2 to 3 minutes.
