Ingredients

Scale

Mug Cake

  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 3 tbsp almond flour
  • 1 egg
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp stevia powder blend (like Truvia)

Glaze

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp stevia powder blend

Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 1 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ tsp stevia powder blend

Instructions

  1. Make the Cake: In a microwave-safe mug, combine melted butter, almond flour, egg, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and stevia powder blend. Stir thoroughly until the batter is smooth and evenly mixed.
  2. Microwave Cooking: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high power for 90 seconds to 2 minutes, or until the top is fully set and the cake is cooked through. Cooking time may vary depending on the microwave.
  3. Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Stir in ground cinnamon and stevia powder blend until combined. Pour this warm glaze evenly over the top of the cooked mug cake.
  4. Add Cream Cheese Frosting: Soften the cream cheese and mix in the stevia powder until well blended. Spoon or swirl the cream cheese frosting over the glazed cake for a rich, classic finishing touch.

Notes

  • Use a microwave-safe mug that can hold at least 8 ounces.
  • Adjust microwave time in small increments if the cake isn’t fully set or is overcooked.
  • For a creamier glaze, you can add a splash of heavy cream while mixing the glaze ingredients.
  • Almond flour makes this recipe keto-friendly and gluten-free.
  • Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the frosting.
