Ingredients

Scale

1 scoop chocolate protein powder (25–30g)

1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

2 tablespoons oat flour or almond flour

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

3 tablespoons unsweetened milk (almond, oat or dairy)

1 tablespoon sweetener (stevia, erythritol or monk fruit)

1 tablespoon Greek yogurt or unsweetened applesauce

a few drops vanilla extract (optional)

pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Add protein powder, cocoa powder, oat or almond flour, baking powder and salt to a microwave-safe mug and stir to combine.

2. Pour in milk, yogurt or applesauce, sweetener and vanilla extract then mix until a smooth batter forms.

3. If batter is too thick, add an extra teaspoon of milk; if too thin, sprinkle in a bit more flour.

4. Microwave on high for 60 seconds and check the center; if still wet, heat in 10-second intervals until set but springy.

5. Let the mug cake rest for 30–60 seconds to finish cooking and cool slightly.

6. Top with yogurt, nut butter or sugar-free chocolate chips and enjoy warm.
