0:02
I'm going to show you how to make
0:04
twominute mug cakes in the microwave i'm
0:07
going to show you how to make a rich and
0:09
delicious chocolate mug cake and then
0:11
I'm going to show you a delightfully
0:13
delicious vanilla mug cake
0:16
so good now both of these mug cakes are
0:19
grain and gluten-free and they are also
0:21
100% dairyf free as well now if you're
0:25
not familiar with mug cakes it's simply
0:27
a single serving of cake made in a mug
0:31
in the microwave they're really quick
0:33
and simple to make and it's a really fun
0:35
way to enjoy a high quality homemade
0:39
sweet treat without having to rely on
0:41
something pre-made from the grocery
0:43
store and or without having to make an
0:46
entire cake and yes this can also be
0:48
done with cookies and brownies so if you
0:50
are interested in either of those be
0:52
sure to let me know down in the comment
0:54
section below but in the meantime let's
0:57
make some mug cakes so the first thing I
0:59
want to address are all of my vegan
1:00
friends i tried to make these mug cakes
1:03
with a chia egg and it did not work so
1:06
unfortunately I do not have a vegan
1:07
option for this recipe but I am so
1:10
curious if any of you come up with a
1:12
solution or something that works please
1:14
share it down in the comments below
1:16
because I know a lot of people are going
1:17
to be curious about that so thank you
1:20
okay now I am using an 8 oz mug for this
1:23
you can really use any mug that you have
1:25
in the house you just don't want to go
1:26
smaller than 8 ounces otherwise the mug
1:29
cake is going to spill over when it's
1:30
cooking so I just start by greasing my
1:33
mug with a little bit of coconut oil you
1:35
could also do this with butter or a
1:37
little bit of cooking spray just
1:38
something to make sure that the cake
1:40
doesn't stick to the mug now you could
1:42
absolutely make the cake right in the
1:45
mug but for me it gets a little bit
1:47
messy so I prefer to use these spouted
1:50
glass cups to mix the ingredients and
1:52
then we'll transfer it into the mug so
1:54
for the chocolate mug cake I'm going to
1:55
start with 3 tablespoons of almond flour
1:58
this is a super fine almond flour 2 tbsp
2:02
of cacao powder you could also do a
2:04
cocoa powder here two tablespoons of
2:06
monk fruit or any granulated sugar that
2:09
you prefer or that you have on hand they
2:11
would all work one egg a tablespoon of
2:15
coconut oil a half a teaspoon of vanilla
2:18
extract 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder
2:21
and just a pinch of salt i'm going to
2:24
use a fork to stir this all together to
2:27
get all the ingredients mixed until I
2:29
have a nice thick cake batter just like
2:32
this then I'm going to transfer it into
2:34
the prepared mug and then I like to add
2:37
just a few chocolate chips over the top
2:40
obviously optional but highly
2:42
recommended from here I pop it into the
2:45
microwave for 1 minute and all
2:47
microwaves do vary so you're going to
2:48
want to keep an eye on it and play with
2:50
it a bit you might need a little more or
2:52
a little less time you're going to see
2:53
that as it cooks the cake starts to rise
2:56
up out of the mug and then it settles
2:59
back down a little bit and you're going
3:00
to know that it's done because it's
3:02
going to be set on the top you're not
3:04
going to see any wet spots and it'll be
3:06
a little bit springy just literally like
3:08
a fresh baked cake from here you just
3:10
want to let it cool until it is edible
3:13
don't want to burn your tongue and then
3:15
what you can do is you can enjoy it just
3:17
the way it is or you can make it extra
3:19
special by topping it with a little bit
3:21
of fresh whipped cream and or Greek
3:23
yogurt and some fresh berries this is so
3:27
to die for i cannot wait for y'all to
3:29
taste it
3:31
and just a side note not only is this a
3:34
great way to curb a sweet tooth and make
3:36
a little sweet treat for yourself but
3:38
you could also double or triple or
3:40
quadruple the recipe and serve it as
3:42
dessert for your entire family or even
3:44
for a dinner party it's really fun and
3:46
it really is that delicious okay so now
3:48
that we've got the basic system down
3:50
let's go ahead and make the vanilla mug
3:52
cake now just like any vanilla cake you
3:54
can get the job done using vanilla
3:56
extract that will completely work if you
3:58
have that use that but
4:01
if you want to make this even extra
4:05
try to get your hands on some fresh
4:07
vanilla beans just like this the thing
4:10
with a fresh vanilla bean is that it's
4:12
rather pricey but a lot of stores like I
4:14
got this one at Whole Foods will sell
4:16
just one bean for people like you and I
4:19
who don't need a whole bunch right you
4:20
might just need it for a little recipe
4:22
like a vanilla mug cake so this costs
4:24
about five dollars still pricey but I'm
4:26
telling you so insanely delicious what
4:29
you're going to do is you're just going
4:30
to cut the bean in half split it down
4:33
the middle and then use the back of your
4:35
knife to scrape the little beans out of
4:37
the pod and these little vanilla beans
4:40
that's like what you see when you're
4:41
eating vanilla ice cream and it has the
4:42
little beans throughout that's what
4:44
these little beauties are right here and
4:45
the flavor is so so beyond vanilla
4:48
extract if you can find it do it okay so
4:51
into my spouted cup goes 4 tablespoon of
4:55
almond flour again I'm using the extra
4:57
fine almond flour 2 tablespoons of monk
5:00
fruit or any granulated sugar that you
5:03
prefer or that you have on hand they
5:04
would all work one teaspoon of coconut
5:07
oil then I have just the littlest bit of
5:11
those vanilla beans it's like just
5:12
enough to fit on your fingertip or you
5:14
could do a half a teaspoon of vanilla
5:16
extract one egg 1/4 teaspoon of baking
5:20
powder and a pinch of salt i'm going to
5:23
mix that all together get it really well
5:25
incorporated i've got a nice beautiful
5:26
batter and then I'll transfer that into
5:28
a prepared mug now I'm going to let this
5:31
be purely vanilla but a few chocolate
5:33
chips on this cake would be rather
5:34
delicious as well if that's something
5:36
that you're in the mood for pop that in
5:38
the microwave let it cook for about a
5:40
minute when it's set over the top no wet
5:43
spots and nice and springy your cake is
5:46
ready to go so again give it a few
5:48
minutes to cool enjoy it just the way it
5:50
is or top with a little fresh whipped
5:52
cream and some fresh raspberries
5:58
so simple so good these mug cakes are
6:01
moist and light and everything I want a
6:03
piece of cake to be including very very
6:06
easy to make so naturally I am super
6:08
