Preparation

How to prepare Eggless Mug Cake

To prepare the eggless mug cake, pour the milk 1, oil 2, and sugar 3 into a bowl.

Add the flour 4, sifted cocoa 5, and baking powder 6.

Mix with a spoon or a hand whisk until you get a smooth and homogeneous mixture 7. At this point, take two large mugs 4x3 inches, butter and flour them. Divide the prepared mixture into the 2 mugs 8, filling them halfway. Bake the eggless mug cakes in the microwave, one at a time, at 260 W for 2 and a half minutes. Always check the cooking at the end of each minute. Then remove and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Storage

We recommend consuming the mug cake immediately.

Tip

You can enrich the eggless mug cake with chocolate chips.

In an air fryer or oven, this dough can be baked but with suitable containers (not in mugs) and with adjusted cooking times. Clearly, the result will not be identical because the microwave favors a "soufflé type" result while in other cooking modes they would be more like muffins.
