Ingredients
- Wet Ingredients
1 large egg
2 tablespoons unsweetened almond or coconut milk
1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut butter
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Dry Ingredients
2 tablespoons almond flour
1 tablespoon coconut flour
1 tablespoon sweetener (e.g., erythritol)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch of salt
1 tablespoon poppy seeds, or cocoa powder, or chopped nuts (e.g., pecans or walnuts)
- Optional
1 tablespoon Sour cream
2 teaspoon Pine nuts
Directions
- Prepare Your Mug: Grease a microwave-safe mug/ramekin with a little cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl mix egg, coconut milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, baking powder, poppy seeds, and a pinch of salt. Add to wet ingredients.
- Transfer to Mug: Pour the cake batter into the greased mug/ramekin.
- Microwave: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for about 1 minute. Keep an eye on it as microwave cooking times can vary. The cake should rise and set during this time.
- Check for Doneness: After 1 minute, carefully remove the mug/ramekin from the microwave. Insert a toothpick or a knife into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If not, microwave for an additional 10-20 seconds.
- Cool Slightly: Let the mug cake cool for a minute or two before serving. It will be hot when it comes out of the microwave.
- Serve and Enjoy: You can enjoy the mug cake directly from the mug.
Or invert it onto a plate, cut it in half, and spread sour cream for a more appealing presentation. Let the cake sponge absorb sour cream by leaving it in the refrigerator for 4 hours or more. - Optionally, you can dust the top with a little cocoa powder or a tablespoon of pine nuts.

Notes
- Experiment with your favorite low-carb additions, such as sugar-free chocolate chips, or cocoa powder.
- Adjust the sweetener to your taste. If you like it sweeter, add 2 tablespoons of erythritol. But be cautious not to overdo it, as low-carb sweeteners can sometimes have a bitter aftertaste.
- Be mindful of the microwave cooking time to avoid overcooking, which can result in a dry mug cake.
- You can bake it in the oven at 180C/350F for 15-20 minutes.
- This recipe can be easily doubled.

Ingredients and Substitutions
Almond flour – Almond flour has a relatively neutral taste and slightly coarser consistency, but using only almond flour will create a crumbly cake sponge and the extra fat makes it greasy.
Coconut flour – Coconut flour is high in fiber and low in carbs. Adding coconut flour dramatically improves texture. It also absorbs more moisture than any other grain-free flour without imparting coconut flavor. This means you need two tablespoons of coconut milk.
Sour cream – Give a tang and moisture to the cake.
Rest the batter – When you rest the batter for 15 minutes, the coconut flour will absorb more moisture and make the cake rice better.
Eggs – I used 1 large egg at any temperature.
Coconut oil – This can be substituted with butter.
Low-carb sweetener – Erythritol is my preferred low-carb sweetener; you can substitute your favorite low-carb sweetener. You can use your favorite low-carb sweetener. Be aware that not all low-carb sweeteners can be substituted 1:1 for erythritol. See a “KETO Zero Carb Sugar Substitute Sweeteners for Baking & Conversion Chart” post for more information on low-carb sweeteners and substitutions.
