Vanilla Almond Butter Mug Cake

Delicious & Guilt Free!!!... This yummy vanilla cake with a hint of almond butter, will have you wondering why you have ever bought desserts in the market!




When you are minutes away from driving to the store & getting something indulgently sweet because you have a craving & you feel like you "deserve it"... This will save you, your waistline & your conscience!!! So easy and quick if you already have the healthy low carb options in your kitchen & it is microwaved in about a minute! LOVE IT!!!

2 tbsp Melted butter
1 tsp Coconut oil
1 Egg
1 tsp Coconut flour
3 tbsp almond flour
1tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp vanilla
a dash of salt
1 tbsp almond butter
a dash of cinnamon
*1 tbsp of your favorite vanilla protein powder (optional but delicious!)
Lots of Sugar substitute ( I used about 8 packets of stevia)

Melt your butter & almond butter in a bowl & then mix the remaining ingredients.  Once you have a thoroughly mixed batter drop your tbsp of almond butter into a greased mug & microwave for 60-90 seconds (you should see the "cake" rise up)

Top off with your favorite sugar free drizzle, syrup, melted almond butter or whipped cream!

This Mug cake was a little filling for me so you can very easily separate the batter into two mugs & save one for a separate weak moment!
