HP – Banana Mug Cake
Banana Mug Cake. The ideal snack for beating sugary cravings in a healthier way. Very easy and quick to make – from cupboard to sofa in less than five minutes!
Servings:1 person
Calories:645kcal
Ingredients
For the regular version
- 2 egg
- 1 ripe banana
- 6 tbsp flour
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (or honey or sugar)
- 4 tbsp milk (any kind works!)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Salt to taste
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
Topping ideas (optional)
- 0.7 oz dark chocolate
Instructions
For the regular version
- Slice or break the banana into pieces and add to a well-sized microwaveable bowl.
- Add the egg, sliced banana, flour, maple syrup, milk and baking powder.
- Give it a good whisk with a fork, hand blender or by using a food processor. Make sure the banana gets crushed. For the most even results, grate the dark chocolate in by hand.
- Pop the mug or bowl into the microwave for 3 minutes, using an 800w microwave (adjust as appropriate for your microwave).
Tips for making the perfect Banana Mug Cake
- Use a large bowl and don’t overfill
- If the cake is leaning to one side, stop cooking, turn and continue cooking.
- Cook shorter times rather than overcooking – an overcooked cake isn’t what you want – you can always give it another ten seconds when needed
NOTES
WHAT IF YOU DON’T HAVE A MICROWAVE: No problem! Preheat the oven to 180°C/360°F. Then chuck in the mug for 20 minutes. Make sure it’s heat resistant, though 🙂
