Rich, fudgy, and ready in 90 seconds, this high-protein mug cake is the perfect way to crush your dessert cravings without wrecking your macros. With gooey chocolate and a peanut butter swirl, it’s a single-serving treat you’ll come back to again and again.


Ingredients

Scale

2 tbsp oat flour (or almond flour for lower carbs)

1 scoop chocolate protein powder

1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 tsp baking powder

2 tbsp peanut butter (or PB2 for lower fat)

3 tbsp milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1 tbsp maple syrup or sweetener of choice

Optional: chocolate chips or dark chocolate square


Instructions

In a microwave-safe mug, mix oat flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, and baking powder.

Add milk, sweetener, and 1 tbsp of peanut butter. Stir until smooth.

Drop the second tablespoon of peanut butter on top and swirl it in.

Microwave for 60–90 seconds (until set but still soft in the center).

Let cool for 1–2 minutes before digging in. Top with chocolate chips or a drizzle of syrup if desired.
