Kev Tip
Pull it when the center just sets.
Mug cakes dry out fast. Stop microwaving once the center is set but still soft.

Texture Notes
Best eaten fresh. Mug cakes are not ideal for meal prep because they firm up as they sit.
Instructions
- 1In a small bowl or mug, whisk egg, nut butter, and sugar-free syrup until smooth.
- 2Stir in oat flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined.
- 3Microwave for 1–3 minutes, checking early. The center should just set.
- 4Let cool slightly before topping.
- 5Top with cinnamon, whipped cream, Greek yogurt, or protein icing if desired.
Dessert Notes
This is a richer mug cake.
Nut butter makes it satisfying and flavorful, but also calorie-dense. Keep it as a planned dessert or snack.
Best texture move.
Microwave in short bursts after the first minute. Every microwave is different, and 20 extra seconds can take it from soft to dry.
