Vegan Protein Powder Mug Cake

Time: 5 minutes

Serves: 1

Ingredients:

• 1 small (or half a large) ripe banana— you’ll want it to be brown and spotty, so it is sweet and very soft

• 2 tablespoon cocoa powder

• 1 tablespoon maple syrup or agave

• 1 tablespoon flour

• 2 tablespoon protein powder 

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 

• Pinch of salt 

• 1/3 cup almond milk (pour gradually)

Directions:

1. In a microwave-safe bowl or mug, mash a ripe banana

2. Add dry remaining ingredients and mix together with mashed banana. Slowly board almond or other dairy-free milk of choice. You want the “batter” to be smooth and the consistency of a boxed brownie mix.

3. Microwave for 2 minutes. If it isn’t fully “baked” (not firm on top or a toothpick doesn’t come out clean), microwave for another 30 seconds.

4. Top with vegan ice cream, nut butter, and/or fruit.
