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
- ½ tsp stevia powder blend
Instructions
- Make the cake: In a microwave-safe mug, combine melted butter, almond flour, egg, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and stevia powder. Mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and well blended.
- Microwave: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high power for 90 seconds to 2 minutes. The cake is done when the top is set and no longer wet.
- Add the glaze: In a small bowl, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Stir in ground cinnamon and stevia powder until well combined. Pour this glaze evenly over the warm mug cake to add sweetness and moisture.
- Top it off: Allow the cream cheese to soften, then mix it with stevia powder until smooth. Swirl the cream cheese frosting on top of the glazed cake to create a classic cinnamon roll finish. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Use a microwave-safe mug that can hold at least 8 ounces to avoid spills during cooking.
- Adjust the stevia amount according to your preferred sweetness level.
- Make sure the egg is fresh and the cream cheese is softened for the best texture.
- Cooking time may vary depending on the microwave wattage; start with 90 seconds and add additional time if needed.
- This recipe is perfect for a quick keto-friendly dessert or snack for one.
