- Microwave-safe mug
- Measuring spoons
- Measuring cups
Ingredients
- ¼ cup Almond flour
- 2 tbsp Erythritol or another keto-friendly sweetener
- 2 tbsp Pumpkin puree
- 1 Egg large
- 1 tbsp Heavy cream
- 1 tbsp Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tsp Pumpkin pie spice
- ½ tsp Instant coffee granules
- ½ tsp Baking powder
- ½ tsp Vanilla extract
- Salt a pinch
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe mug, combine the almond flour, sweetener, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, instant coffee granules, and salt. Mix well to combine all the dry ingredients thoroughly.
- Add the pumpkin puree, egg, heavy cream, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.
- Tap the mug gently on the countertop to release any large air bubbles.
- Microwave the mug cake on high for about 90 seconds to 2 minutes. The cooking time may vary depending on your microwave's wattage. The mug cake should be firm to the touch but slightly moist.
- Allow the cake to cool for a minute before enjoying it directly from the mug or inverting onto a plate.
Notes
Ensure your pumpkin puree is unsweetened and keto-friendly.
If you prefer a stronger coffee flavor, you may increase the instant coffee granules to taste.
Always check the doneness of your mug cake as microwaves vary in power.
Top with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice for an extra special touch (remember to account for additional carbs and calories).
