Ingredients

  • 30 g Chocolate or Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
  • 1 tbsp Coconut Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 large Eg g
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 1 tsp Sugar -free sweetener (e.g., Erythritol)

Instructions

  • Select a microwave-safe mug with at least a 12-ounce capacity to prevent overflow.
  • Whisk the protein powder, coconut flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, and sweetener in the mug until no clumps remain.
  • Add the egg and almond milk to the dry ingredients.
  • Mix thoroughly with a fork or small whisk until a smooth, uniform batter is achieved, ensuring you scrape the bottom edges of the mug.
  • Microwave on high power for 45 to 60 seconds; the cake is done when the top is set but still slightly springy.
  • Remove from the microwave and allow the cake to rest for 60 seconds to finish the internal steaming process before consuming.
