Introduction:

Yo, craving cinnamon rolls without breaking your keto diet? We got you covered! This warm cinnamon roll mug cake is like a cozy hug for your taste buds, with all the flavors of the classic treat minus the carbs. It’s so easy to whip up, you’ll be wondering why you never tried mug cakes before.

Ingredients:

For the Cake:

– 1/4 cup almond flour
– 1/4 cup coconut flour
– 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
– 1 egg
– 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
– 1 tablespoon melted butter
– 1 tablespoon sugar-free sweetener (such as stevia or erythritol)

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

– 1 tablespoon butter, melted
– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1/4 teaspoon sugar-free sweetener

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Mug: Grease a microwave-safe mug with butter.
  2. Make the Cake Batter: In a small bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, almond milk, melted butter, and sweetener. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  3. Create the Cinnamon Swirl: In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, cinnamon, and sugar-free sweetener. Spread a thin layer of the cinnamon mixture over the cake batter in the mug.
  4. Microwave: Microwave the mug cake on high for 1 minute and 15-30 seconds, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for a few minutes.
  5. Frost with Glaze (Optional): For an extra decadent touch, you can make a simple glaze by whisking together 1 tablespoon of cream cheese, 1 tablespoon of sugar-free sweetener, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Drizzle over the cooled cinnamon roll mug cake.

    6. Additional Tips:

    – For a more intense cinnamon flavor, add an extra 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon to the cake batter.
    – If you don’t have coconut flour on hand, you can substitute it with an equal amount of almond flour.
    – To make the mug cake gluten-free, use certified gluten-free almond flour and coconut flour.
    – You can also add a sprinkle of chopped nuts or sugar-free chocolate chips to the cinnamon swirl for extra crunch.
    – If you don’t have a microwave, you can bake the mug cake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
