  • In a microwave-safe mug, beat the egg and combine with melted butter, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Whisk until combined.
  • Once smooth, add almond flour, keto granular sweetener and baking powder. Mix all ingredients until you get a smooth mug cake batter. Optionally, fold through chocolate chips.
  • Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for approximately 45 seconds to 1 minute, or until the cake has risen and is set in the center. Microwaves may vary, so adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot!) and allow the cake to cool for a minute before serving.
