Description

A high-protein keto pumpkin mug cake ready in 2 minutes. No added sugar, tastes like dessert, and keeps kids (and moms) full until lunch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 Tbsp canned pumpkin puree
  • 1½ Tbsp golden erythritol
  • 2 Tbsp almond flour
  • 1 Tbsp unflavored collagen
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon
  • ⅛ tsp nutmeg
  • ⅛ tsp cardamom

Instructions

  1. Add the butter to a large microwave-safe mug (12 oz or bigger) and microwave for 15–20 seconds, until melted.
  2. Add the eggs, pumpkin puree and golden erythritol. Whisk with a fork until smooth.
  3. Stir in the almond flour, collagen, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom until no dry spots remain.
  4. Microwave for about 2 minutes, until the top is set and springs back when lightly touched. (Mine took 2 minutes 20 seconds; start checking at 1 minute 45 seconds.)
  5. Let it rest for 1 minute. Eat it straight from the mug, or run a knife around the edge and flip it onto a plate. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Notes

Notes: Use a 12-oz or larger mug. Microwave times vary, so check at 1 minute 45 seconds. Swap the collagen for protein powder, or leave it out.
