Ingredients
⅓ cup Muggins mix from WellBean
¼ cup plant milk
1 tablespoon pistachio cream (optional)
1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
Pinch of matcha powder, for color (optional)
Chocolate chips, for topping (optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the Muggins mix and plant milk until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, mix the pistachio cream, coconut oil, and matcha powder (if using) to make the filling.
- Transfer half of the mug cake batter to a microwave-safe mug and make a small well in the center.
- Spoon the pistachio filling into the well, then cover with the remaining batter.
- Top with chocolate chips if desired, then microwave on high for 90 seconds.
- Let cool briefly before enjoying straight from the mug.
Notes
- To make an extra-large mug cake, simply double the recipe.
- For an extra gooey center, press a square of dark chocolate into the batter before microwaving.
- You can substitute pistachio cream with any nut or seed butter.
- Top with berries, vegan yogurt, or nut butter for added indulgence.
