Tips to Make One Minute Mug Cakes

1. Don’t overmix your batter; a few lumps are okay.
2. Adjust the cooking time based on your microwave’s wattage. You may need to add a few seconds if it doesn’t seem done.
3. Use a large enough mug to prevent overflow during cooking.

Variation

Feel free to experiment with different flavors! You can add chocolate chips, nuts, or fruits to personalize your cakes. Try using cookie butter instead of peanut butter for a different taste, or swap out cocoa powder for cinnamon to create a spiced cake!

FAQs

1. Can I make these cakes vegan?
Yes, you can use plant-based milk and substitute the butter with coconut oil or vegan butter to make a vegan version.

2. What if I don’t have self-rising flour?
You can make your own self-rising flour by combining all-purpose flour (4 tablespoons) with 1/2 teaspoon baking powder and a pinch of salt.

3. Can I make more than one cake at a time?
While you can prepare multiple mugs, it is best to microwave them one at a time to ensure they cook properly.
