In our fast-paced world, finding a quick and healthy treat can be a challenge. But what if you could whip up a delicious, nutritious mug cake in just a few minutes using ingredients you likely have on hand? Enter the Banana Oat Mug Cake—a delightful, wholesome dessert that's perfect for a quick snack or an after-dinner treat.
Ingredients:
1 banana
1 egg
2 tablespoons of oats (20g)
A dash of cinnamon
1 square of 100% cocoa chocolate
Instructions:
Mash the Banana: In a microwave-safe mug, mash the banana until smooth. This not only adds natural sweetness but also keeps the cake moist.
Sprinkle Cinnamon: Add a dash of cinnamon to the mixture. Cinnamon not only adds warmth and flavor but also brings its own health benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties.
Incorporate the Oats: Stir in the 2 tablespoons of oats. Oats provide a lovely texture and are a great source of fiber, making this treat even healthier.
Chocolate Surprise: Push a square of 100% cocoa chocolate into the center of the mixture. As the cake cooks, the chocolate will melt, creating a gooey, rich center.
Add the Egg: Crack the egg into the mug and mix it well with the mashed banana. The egg acts as a binding agent, giving the cake structure.
Microwave: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for about 2-3 minutes. Cooking times can vary depending on your microwave, so keep an eye on it. The cake should rise and be set in the center.
