Check out the site.. many many great recipes!
Ingredients for the mug cake:
- 1 pastured egg (room temperature)
- 4 Tablespoons almond flour
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2-3 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon clove
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil (I prefer palm shortening)
Method:
Grease the mug or ramekin with the coconut oil (or palm shortening). Whisk all of the wet ingredients in the mug then add the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Place the mug in the microwave for about 1 minute. If the cake is still wet and sticky to the touch, place it back into the microwave for another 30 seconds (my microwave takes a minute and a half but depending on your microwave, it may take more or possibly less). Turn the mug over on to a plate. It should release easily but if not, drag a butter knife around the edge – or just eat it out of the mug! Top with Real Food Renegade Rum Caramel Sauce and sliced bananas.
- 2/3 cup of coconut palm sugar
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons spiced rum
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Add the palm sugar and water and heat on medium while mixing continuously. Once the palm sugar is dissolved, add the butter, heavy cream, and vanilla. Continue to cook (about 5 minutes or so) while stirring until caramel is smooth and slightly thicker. Add the spiced rum and continue to cook for a few more minutes. Spoon over top of Spiced Vanilla Mug Cake and top with banana slices or other fruit. Eat and enjoy!
Please remember.. this is still a "cheat", just good Cheat!! :-)
