Dry Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons Almond flour Can substitute with coconut flour, reducing the quantity.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1-2 tablespoons Sweetener (erythritol preferred) Any keto-friendly sweetener can be used.

  • 1 splash Vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Gather your ingredients.
  • In a microwave-safe mug, combine the almond flour, baking powder, sweetener, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
  • Crack in the egg and add the melted butter along with the vanilla extract. Stir until everything forms a smooth batter.
  • Pop your mug in the microwave for about 60-90 seconds. Keep an eye on it to avoid over-microwaving.
  • Let your cake sit for a minute before enjoying. Top with fresh berries or a drizzle of almond butter, if desired.

Notes

Keep an eye on microwaving time to prevent a rubbery texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate.
