This easy coconut mug cake is fluffy and moist. It cooks in the microwave in less than 2 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp granular erythritol
  • 2 tbsp milk can use coconut, almond or regular
  • 1/2 tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut

Instructions

  1. In a large microwave-safe mug, add all ingredients except shredded coconut. Mix with a small whisk until batter is smooth and egg has been completely beaten in.
  2. Stir in 1 tbsp of shredded coconut.
  3. Cook cake in microwave at full power for about 1 minute 30 seconds or until cake is fully cooked. Cake will initially rise very high before sinking back down when it stops cooking.
  4. Allow cake to cool a few minutes before eating. If you want a nicer presentation, you can remove the cake from the large mug and place it into an 8 oz mug. Top with whipped cream or coconut whipped cream before serving.

Notes

  • The cake can be topped with regular whipped cream sweetened with erythritol or coconut whipped cream (replace the powdered sugar with powdered erythritol)
  • I used So Nourished erythritol sweetener granular* in the cake.
  • I used Bob Red Mill's coconut flour.*
  • I cooked my cake in an 1100 watt microwave.  You may need to adjust time and/or power if you are using a different wattage.
