    Vegan Chocolate Mugcake

    Quick to prepare, easy, delicious, healthy and chocolatey would be the words to describe this mugcake.

    The cool thing about mugcakes is that as the word says, it is literally cake in a mug and it’s ready in a couple of minutes because it’s cooked in the microwave. Although it can also be cooked in the oven without issues, it just takes a little more time. Just always remember to use microwave-safe mugs or molds or if you use an oven, oven-safe.

    Vegan Chocolate Mugcake

    Can I skip the banana in this vegan chocolate mugcake recipe?

    Banana gives the mugcake such a good consistency. But if you don't like it very much, you can safely omit it. You don't need to substitute it, just add the rest of the ingredients and follow the same process.

    If I wanted to make a mugcake without the chocolate flavor, what adjustments should I make?

    Just substitute the cocoa poder for more oat flour. Also add a little vanilla extract, even a little bit of cinnamon powder, and that’s it.

    How long does it take to cook this mugcake in the oven?

    At a temperature of 355°F in a preheated oven, the cooking time would be 15-25 minutes. I suggest you start checking the mugcake after 15 minutes using the toothpick technique (insert a toothpick in the center and if it comes out clean, the mugcake is ready).

      Thank you for adding the note on how to adapt for no banana. It's tricky to be a low-fat vegan and not like banana, LOL.

      This is a really good recipe and it takes amazing! I had one issue with the batter almost COMPLETELY bubbling out of the mug into my microwave. Any suggestions or thing to do differently?

        Hi Ale! Thank you for trying out my recipe, and I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it! It sounds like you had a bit of excitement with the batter bubbling over in your microwave. The issue might be due to the size of the mug or the microwave's power settings. To prevent this from happening in the future, you can try using a larger mug or microwave-safe container, which should give the batter more room to expand without overflowing.

        Also, if you enjoyed the recipe and found it delicious, I would be incredibly grateful if you could consider giving it a 5-star rating. Your positive feedback and ratings really help me reach more people who might want to try this recipe. Thank you so much for your support, and happy cooking! 😊🌟
