Easy Almond Butter Mug Cake recipe. This no bake dessert idea is ready in under 5 minutes and is perfect for a last minute sweet treat.
I most definitely need more mug cake recipes. Especially during the summer months.
It is HOT here!! At this rate, I won’t be turning on the oven until October! Time to make this Almond Butter Mug Cake and a million different variations until then!
What you need to make Almond Butter Mug Cake
7 simple ingredients that you might already have at home! All you need is:
- flour
- sugar
- baking powder
- egg
- almond butter
- milk
- oil
That’s it!
Variations and preparation
This recipe is extremely versatile. If you don’t have almond butter, feel free to switch it up with whatever nut butter you do have at home.
This also holds up really well if you mix in chocolate chips or other mix-ins. I have made some mug cakes in the past where everything just sank to the bottom. Not so with this one! Your mix-ins will be evenly distributed throughout!
One important note about preparing this mug cake is to watch it carefully in the microwave!! if it looks like the cake is going to overflow in your mug, stop the microwave then wait for a couple of seconds until it goes back down. Repeat until the time is up.
Otherwise, there could be quite the mess in your microwave!
