Mug cakes are the perfect way to treat yourself without overindulging. Easy and simple to make, these keto cakes are loaded with grain-free nutrients to boost your mood and improve your digestive health.

Blueberries and lemon juice join together for a sweet and tart flavor that pairs perfectly with coconut oil. The base of this cake is made with a combination of hazelnut flour and coconut flour to create a light and fluffy texture, turning golden brown when baked.

You'll need an oven-safe mug for this recipe. So before starting, check the bottom of your mug to make sure it's oven-safe. To get started, combine the wet ingredients in one bowl and the dry ingredients in another. Mix both dry and wet ingredients together, then gently stir in the coconut oil and blueberries last. Do not mix the coconut oil with the initial blending of the wet ingredients since this will cause the mixture to harden.

After the cake batter is mixed, pour it into the oven-safe mug and bake for 25 minutes. Once the cake is complete, serve immediately and enjoy warm!

    Notes

    • Place the mug onto a baking sheet to prevent it from cracking or spilling during the baking process.
    • While we used a 20 oz. mug for this recipe, feel free to divide the batter between two smaller mugs, or divide the ingredients in half and serve the recipe in one smaller mug.
