I have stopped using microwave owen is it possible to make this cake in a regular owen? ❤️

I replaced the maple syrup with honey and the coconut oil with butter (because that's what I had at hand) and added a tiiiiiiiiiiiny amount of salt and powdered instant coffee and I haven't been able to stop making it. 4/6 eggs from the crate are gone.

Thank you so much

its 4:09 am and I just made this . Now I'm eating it, it's still burning hot but I couldnt resist ...👌👌👌

As an expert in microwave cakes, and as someone who made countless mug cakes in the microwave I can say very comfortably that this recipe is one of, if not THE BEST microwave mug cake I have ever tasted in my very long years of tasting them And its pretty healthy too so there's that

This was good! I subbed peanut butter for the coconut oil and to make it vegan, I subbed one tablespoon of chia seeds mixed with two tablespoons of water for the egg. It was really good. Thank you!

Awesome - love those substitutions Pola! Glad you enjoyed it!

When I tell you that this is the best thing since cake!!. I didn't have any maple syrup so I used honey and I also swapped out the coconut oil for Ghee . Microwaved it for 1 minute 20 seconds. Finally, I turned it upside down onto a plate then placed a 60% Dark chocolate square from Giharadell and the heat from the cake melts it so beautifully. I'm sold! I just started the Paleo diet and this will come in handy.

Thank You so much for sharing this recipe with the world! Do you have any other versions of this type of mug cake in other flavors?👍

I love this recipe! I am so happy to have found your videos. You make sense, are calming, give me hope I can make sense out preparing good, nutritious meals. I already have a Vita-mix but rarely use it!! I never knew I could purchase more attachments! I was always trying to figure out where to store the plunger as when I needed it I couldn't find it because it was hidden in a drawer!! You have inspired me to scale down all of the accessories I have in my kitchen but NEVER use! I just moved and when the workmen are finished painting I will edit setting up my kitchen!! Thank you!!

I made it tonight very delicious ! I topped it with powdered sugar and hazelnuts, added some chocolate chips to the batter it turned out very delicious and satisfied my chocolate craving . Thank you for the recipe.

Other mug cake recipes i have tried tasted bitter and rubbery. this is very satisfying and I don't feel like i'm overindulging or being deprived. I only had 3/4 spn of maple syrup left so i added a lil agave nectar to equal 2 tablespoons since thats what i had on hand. also added a 1/2 tspn mini carob chips for crunch. thank you!
