Pumpkin Mug Cake

I just had mug cake of the day #4, but it came out so well that I am going to hit the pause button on #s 2 and 3, and write up this one right away! This one was from:

Pumpkin Mug Cake - YUM!


Ingredients:

1 egg
2 tablespoons milk (I used soy this time)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (get the real stuff - no vanilla "flavoring")
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
7 tablespoons almond flour (you could use other flours, too)
1 tablespoon erythritol
10 drops liquid stevia (I used vanilla flavor)
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or your favorite mix of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, allspice)


What to do:

1. Grease a mug with oil (I use coconut oil).
2. Mix liquids together right in the mug with a fork, then stir in flour (sift first if you like), or mix it all in a bowl and then transfer to mug.
3. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, more or less, depending on your microwave. It should be set when done cooking, but still moist in the center.
4. Turn out onto a plate and let cool for a couple of minutes - it will be extremely hot when it comes out of the microwave.
5. Dig in and enjoy!


Happy autumn harvest (aka pumpkin season in this house)  :-)
