Mug Cake Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cinnamon Sugar Topping
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon for topping
  • 1 teaspoon sugar for topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a microwave-safe mug, stir together the flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
  2. Pour in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir well until smooth, scraping the bottom of the mug to remove any dry flour.
Cinnamon Sugar Topping
  1. In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon with the 1 teaspoon of sugar.
  2. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar evenly over the batter surface in the mug.
Cooking
  1. Microwave on high for about 90 seconds, until the center looks set.
  2. Let it cool for about 1 minute before serving.

Notes

Choose a standard mug for better results and stir thoroughly to avoid dry pockets of flour. This mug cake is best enjoyed immediately after cooking, as it loses its tenderness over time.
