There are some days I have all the patience in the world and then there are others where I can’t even wait 20 minutes for a batch of muffins to bake! Sometimes I try to think ahead and wrap up a few extra goodies to store in the freezer for those moments where I need something sweet, like, NOW! But the funny thing about being a mom is that I rarely remember those “think ahead” treats and end up finding all of these random cookies, muffins, etc. tucked away in the back of the freezer six months too late. 

Luckily, some genius invented mug cakes and now we can have a homemade treat in a matter of minutes! 


Mug cakes are single serving treats that get mixed together in a mug and “baked” in the microwave. They’re perfect when you don’t want need a dozen muffins lying around because you have no self-control and will eat every last one all by yourself and then feel guilty about eating said muffins, spending the rest of the night binging out on sappy romcoms on Netflix, wallowing in guilt. 🙈

Gluten-Free Blueberry Muffin Mug Cake:

  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free all-purpose blend (I used Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 baking flour, in blue bag)
  • 2 tablespoons superfine blanched almond flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, coconut sugar or 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons almond milk (or other milk of choice)
  • 1/2 tablespoon oil I use avocado oil or melted coconut oil
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2–3 tablespoons frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. In a mug, blend together flour(s), baking powder, and salt. Add sweetener, milk, oil, and vanilla, stirring until smooth. Be sure to get the bottom corners as flour pockets tend to get stuck in the crevices. Fold in blueberries.
  2. Place mug into the microwave and heat for 60–120 seconds, just until center is set. Keep an eye on it and take it out as soon as the cake has risen and is top feels springy to the touch. Time may vary depending on the strength of your microwave. If it is not done in the amount of time listed, continue to cook in 15–20 second intervals until the cake is cooked. Serve right away.
