Top with a spoon of peanut butter, chocolate chips, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
This cake is meant to be eaten fresh — not suitable for long storage.
Variations:
Add a pinch of baking powder for a fluffier cake.
Mix in chopped nuts or a few berries before microwaving.
Use honey or maple syrup instead of sugar for a natural sweetener.
FAQ:
Can I make this without egg?
Yes, replace the egg with 2 tablespoons of milk or yogurt for a vegetarian version.
What kind of flour works best?
All-purpose flour is ideal, but oat flour or whole wheat flour also works well.
How do I know it’s cooked?
The cake should rise and become firm to the touch. If it’s still wet in the center, microwave for an extra 10–15 seconds.
