Vegan Chocolate Mug Cake

ELAVEGAN.COM

Moist and fudgy (or fluffy) vegan chocolate mug cake in 5 minutes from scratch, with no egg, dairy, oil, and even gluten-free!

This vegan mug brownie/cake has a slightly firm crust on the top with a soft, fudgy middle. Made even more decadent with an optional stuffing of peanut butter for ultimate decadence.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

First, add the dry ingredients to a mug and stir or whisk. Mash a banana in a bowl or on a plate (I find this is easier than mashing it directly into the mug).

STEP 1

Then, add the wet ingredients (including the mashed banana), and stir to combine, making sure it’s thoroughly mixed, even the very bottom corners.

STEP 2

If you plan on adding the peanut butter, spoon it onto the batter now and gently push it down with a spoon.

STEP 3

Then, transfer the mug to the microwave. Microwave for 60-70 seconds for a fudgy texture, or 80-90 seconds for a lighter, cakier texture.

STEP 4

Finally, optionally dust with powdered sugar (I used powdered Erythritol) and enjoy after allowing it to cool for 3-5 minutes!
