Pumpkin Spice Keto Mug Cake Recipe

Pumpkin Spice Keto Mug Cake

Ingredients:

• 3 tablespoons almond flour
• 1 tablespoon coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
• 2 tablespoons keto-friendly sweetener (such as erythritol or monk fruit)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin spice (a blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• A pinch of salt

Optional Toppings:

• Keto-friendly whipped cream
• Chopped nuts
• A sprinkle of cinnamon

Instructions:

Prepare the Mug Cake Batter:

1. Choose a Microwave-Safe Mug:
   • Select a microwave-safe mug with a capacity of at least 12 ounces to allow for rising during cooking.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients:
   • In the mug, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, keto-friendly sweetener, baking powder, pumpkin spice, and a pinch of salt.
3. Add Wet Ingredients:
   • Add pumpkin puree, egg, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients in the mug. Mix well until a smooth batter forms.

Microwave the Mug Cake:

4. Microwave:
   • Microwave the mug on high for 90 seconds to 2 minutes, or until the cake has risen and is set in the center. Cooking times may vary based on your microwave’s wattage.
5. Check for Doneness:
   • Check the doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter), the mug cake is ready.

Optional Toppings and Serving:

6. Cool Slightly:
   • Allow the mug cake to cool for a minute before handling.
7. Add Toppings:
   • Optionally, top the Pumpkin Spice Keto Mug Cake with keto-friendly whipped cream, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor and texture.
8. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Enjoy your Pumpkin Spice Keto Mug Cake directly from the mug. It’s a quick and satisfying treat!

Notes:

• Adjust the sweetness level by adding more or less keto-friendly sweetener to suit your taste preferences.
• Customize the spice blend by adjusting the amount of pumpkin spice or adding additional spices like cinnamon or nutmeg.
• This mug cake is a single-serving recipe, but you can easily multiply the ingredients to make more servings if needed.
• Ensure that your pumpkin puree is unsweetened and not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugars.
